I got Felicity's Riding Habit and Tea Lesson Dress for Christmas!!! While the Tea Lesson Dress is beautiful I finally see why so many of you were dissapointed with it. Mine fits fine but it is too short compared to the rest of Felicity's clothes. And the slippers are a joke since they don't fit with stockings on and I don't like Lissie to go without stockings. I've decided that I'm going to buy Felicity's white shoes and let her wear those with the tea dress along with the stockings from her birthday outfit since they match so well.
The riding habit is great though and after I put her in it my father said, "Now she needs a horse," to which my mom responded, "I almost bought her Penny but we didn't have enough money." I am quite happy since we didn't have too much money this year for gifts.
I hope all of you who celbrate Christmas have a merry one today!!! [img]biggrin.gif[/img]
I too was disappointed in Felicity's Tea Lesson when I saw it at AGPC, but I loved Elizabeths so I was looking through the boxed for one without holes and it took me 4 boxes!!! So I decided it was probably a bit too delicate for my liking. I got Felicity's Spring garden gown and her school outfit...cute! Merry Christmas.
Sounds good! Sorry about the outfit...but it is a pretty dress!
Merry Christmas! [img]smile.gif[/img]
I also got Lissie presents for Christmas I got her Christmas Dress, Cardinal Cloak, and winter acsessories(pattens, Muff and Mits)such a great AG Christmas that has been 15 years in the making!
DD got the Tea dress also and we had the same problem with the shoes. A friend came over this evening though and she got Felicity and the same outfit. She had the shoes on with the stockings.
My niece got E's Tea Dress. The lace on the sleeve pulled out the first time she tried it on. We are going to send it back and exchange it for the Riding Outfit. That same friend got E too and the Riding Outfit is gorgeous!
The white slippers are a good idea. You can make bows in yellow or peach or whatever you want to match the yellow gown. Joanns (and other craft stores) carry pre-made flowers in all sorts of colors. If you sew a tiny snap on the back, they work perfectly, just like the red and blue flowers that come with Lissie's shoes. Take a slipper with you when you buy snaps. I used the smallest ones I had in my sewing kit at the time, and they are really, really tight.
You are such a grateful young lady. Your parents should be proud of you. I love it when people are appreciative of what they get...and it sounds like you got some lovely things.
Merry Christmas!

Hi, The tea dress is so lovely. But the shoes should fit with the stockings. Call AG and let them know. They most likely will send you a new set. AG really wants us to be happy. The Elizabeth and Felicity outfits have had some problems. But AG will work with you to get it all taken care of.
I am glad you got the lovely pink riding outfit. It truly a lovely outfit.
A late Merry AG Christmas
P.S. when you talk to AG ask them if Elizabeth is getting some riding boots. She needs white or cream boots to go with her riding outfit. Maybe if enough people ask they will make some.
