My sister and I loved our Holly Hobbie nightgowns so much when we were little that our mom bought an extra nightgown for each of us. She put them away in the closet to give to us at a later date. She didn't realize at the time that it would be about 28 years before she thought about the nightgowns again! Thank goodness we both have little girls who also love the nightgowns! O was thrilled with her very old "new" nightgown!
What a wonderful thing your mother did! I loved Holly Hobbie too.

ReplyDeleteLove the gowns! My mom recently found a handstitched pillow with her on it I used to have. But alas, I only have boys so far. :)
Sweet!! I had Holly Hobbie sheets-they were my favorite.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all of the Holly Hobbie love! We still have our Holly Hobby sheets, too, and we used our Holly Hobby curtains (made from sheets when we were little) for the backing on O's I Spy quilt :)
