Received replacement Felicity items today

I saw you were asking about the Sightseeing and the Star PJs. I got those two in my order, and this is what I think: the sightseeing outfit is gorgeous and so are the PJs. However, I'm inclined to agree about the boots. They were a bit hard to get on and once I did, her feet were almost but not compeletely all the way in them, so I had to push them in further. And as for the Star PJs, they are adorable and I love them, but the slippers were too small. I tried them on Lily and the heels of her feet were out of the back of the slippers about a half an inch, and they won't stay on. So, I am waiting for the new set and I can only hope the slippers will fit this time. But either way I highly recommend both of the outfits, along with the Gala Party outfit and the Paisley Print PJs. All the outfits were just darling!

That's odd, because I have E's tea dress and it fit wonderfully. I check the lace on the sleeves and apron and it's very tightly sewn to the gown. It's a beautiful dress and it seems to be made very well to me. *shrug* Maybe I just got lucky.

The problems with the Tea Lesson dresses still exist. The sleeves on Felicity's are very tight, it's even shorter than the first one and the shoes don't fit. Elizabeth's shoes don't fit either, and I did not try the dress on. I didn't want to risk the lace tearing again. It is really beautiful, but not at all durable the way it is constructed. Also, I realized when I opened the new Elizabeth tea dress that there is no lace cap with the first one. I didn't notice it was missing before.
I still just don't care for mini Elizabeth. The new one is better, but... I hate to say this... she's too much like a Barbie. The face mold is different, the quality of the vinyl is poor and skintone is not right-- very $5 Barbie-- and this is compared to mini Nellie who is only a year old.
So, those three are going back. The new Noah's ark is perfect; the first one was great, just missing one pig. The evil side of me wants to take a tiny drill bit, and put a little hole in the bottom of the one that's going back-- just to see if it's really wood.
Ingrid is great. She sent me a very nice, hand-written note, along with some other goodies.
I am just going to stick with my fab riding habits for Felicity, and when my sewing room remodel is done, I'll hit the Kenmore for some pretty gowns. That way, if they are too small or rip, I'll know it's my own fault! [img]smile.gif[/img]

p.s. Has anyone received the new AGT outfits like Sightseeing and Star PJs? I am interested to hear your reviews. I want these items for Marlot, but I'm so hesitant to order!
