Nellie O'Mallery Arrives

Nellie has joined the team. She is no longer available and I found her on eBay. She is in excellent condition and is missing her hair bow for the outfit she came in. 
Nellie has lovely strawberry blond hair and blue eyes. 

And she has freckles. I was smitten by those freckles. 

Why Nellie?

Nellie is from the 1900's and I love the Edwardian period clothing. Nellie fits the bill to model some of the outfits I plan on making. I chose her over Rebecca (who has the same face mould) due to the freckles and over Samantha as she has the classic face mould (which Kit has).
Nellie will suit a wide range of clothes from the 1850's to the modern era. She has a little girl's face which I love. 

What's Next?

I'm deciding if the first doll I bought will go to the doll hospital to have her head and body/limbs replaced. I do like her a lot even though she had marks on her. 
Secondly a new doll will be purchased Nov. 2020 when they go on sale. I'm thinking of a doll with curly hair. She can wear a lot of different eras of clothing. Jennette is close to what I want for that era doll so I may forego another doll. That remains to be seen.
