neither of these pictures are great but i wanted u guys to see this "knock off" version of kirsten's birthday outfit that my great grandma made. i didnt know my great grandma very well but i do know that she was really interested in american girl dolls (i think she at one point owned a very early release of samantha) and made several doll dresses like this one that ended up in my possession. the other ones i managed to turn back up were just basic flouncy little girl dresses but this one is a little too similar to kirsten's birthday outfit to ignore. its in storage with the rest of her handmade dresses but every time i see a pic of kirsten in her birthday outfit, i think of this bootleg and how much i loved putting my doll in it
