Heirloom Quilts

  

These quilts, each approximately 18" x 24", have been lovingly created by Blondie and daughter Janet.  The quilts were machine pieced and hand quilted by Janet and bound off by hand by Blondie. They are both backed by light blue minky.                                                           $30 ea.

   

   

18" Collector Doll

  

This gracious young lady is wearing a boiled wool embroidered jacket and matching bonnet with bustle skirt with ivory lace trim.  She has black lace-up boots to complete her vintage 1870's outfit.   This doll and outfit are for collectors and not intended for play due to the delicate materials used.   Doll & Outfit    $60.

   

   

  

Blondie's Dolls now has handmade doll bed quilts.  These 2 already have a home, but more will be coming! These are approximately 18" x 24" - the aqua butterfly with embroidery trim, and the 'clouds' version of a 9 patch.

Blondie's Dolls had a great time at Starkenburg Spirit of Christmas 12/7 - 12/10.  The Country Store in Valentine Hall was a good attraction for visitors who came to hear the Spirit of Christmas music program.  Thank you to Debi, Denise and Ava for representing us there so we kept the shop open too!


Blondie's Dolls had a very special group of visitors on Saturday, Oct. 15.  A group from St. Louis Miniature Museum enjoyed the doll gallery, lunch, and an overall fun day in Hermann.  Blondie is a Charter member of the organization and was quite excited to have them visit.  They also celebrated a birthday - lady wearing the crown on the left side of the photo on the right - with a kazoo rendition of Happy Birthday  and then honored mom with the same rendition for her past (February) or next Birthday.  We were not quite certain which.

Blondie Haeberle always loved dolls and began seriously collecting after her first granddaughter, Johanna, was born in 1977.  When combined with the dolls of her family, she has accumulated over 1000 dolls and is now sharing them with the public.


The Doll Gallery has over 500 dolls to view, and the Gift Shop includes collectible bears from Germany, Playmobil toys headquartered in Germany, paper dolls and books for old and young alike, and doll clothes and accessories for American Girl and other 18" dolls.

Blondie's Doll Gallery & Gifts is open.  Come see us at 201 Schiller, Hermann, Missouri.
