they haven't made a new felicity outfit in ages, they should make a new improved nightgown and a winter/spring dress, or any other dresses they have on the covers of the short stories.
I think they would HAVE to bring back the shrewsbury cakes kit. How cute would it be to have Felicity and Elizabeth making cookies together like they did in they book. I think the new one should come with some play cookies and the sugar shouldn't be real. If Samantha's gingerbread house had a whole page, than this deserves a spread!
And what new things would you like (let's hope Mattel is listening!). I would like a neater version of penny, without a saddle. The saddle should be separate and should be a historically accurate side-saddle. And then there should be horse acessories- A horse brush an comb, a bucket, and breeches.

Dolllover, you are the first person to reply to me. As for the short stories, the other three have her in her meet dress. But thinking of short story covers, they should have Felicity's stick-and-hoop-thing. It's on the cover of Felicity d9iscovers a secret and Welcome to Felicity's world. The binding on my copy of Felicity's world book is breaking from me reading it so much. The cover has already fallen off of my Samantha's world book. Why did they change the covers on these?Oh, my local Toys R' us always has like 15 copies of Addy's welcome book, with the old cover.
Ooh, I would like to see a hoop and stick, too. I would also like more clothes for her. Something in the deep green of the riding habit would be nice. While I think a side-saddle would be cool, I don't see how it'd be possible. I would think the weight wouldn't distribute correctly and the horse and doll would just keep falling over. (The dolls can't bend their knees, so in order to keep the legs in the stirrups they'd pretty much have to sit only on one side of the horse.)
If I'm going to dream, I'll dream big. Things that should be part of the "new" Felicity & Elizabeth Collection.
Miss Manderly's Tea Set - how can you play tea lesson with only one tea cup?
Felicty's Guitar
A new Needlework Set with both girl's samplers
The Noah's Ark Toy
Shrewsbury Cakes Kit, which you already mentioned
The hoop is a great idea
Elizabeth would also need a gown for the Governer's Ball and a Blue Cloak.
Didn't think of that. But at least have a nice brown leather-like saddle instead of the hidious blue-and-yellow horror that comes with Penny now.
I agree on the hoop and stick and tea lesson
I also think they need her blue striped work dress she wears in a lot of the illustrations
a basket and apples for making applebutter and maybe a cooking pot
dancing lesson instructions
Josefina's bizcochito cookies make good Shrewsbury cakes but Felicity needs her own, like someone said.
Great ideas keep 'em coming!
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">That is called a rolling hoop. And by the age of 9, Felicity wouldn't have been playing with that anymore. It would have been Nann's toy. Felicity would have played Graces. She's holding Graces on the cover of her Craft Book. I myself prefer playing Graces to the rolling hoop anyway, lol. It's more fun and a heck of a lot more challenging than most people think!Originally posted by Felicityexpert:

O.K., so before anyone knew about the Elizabeth trademark I was drawing a Elizabeth doll. She had
-Her acessories had a the hat in her world book (starting to see why the book is falling apart?)maybe the purse, and most importantly a cameo necklace. I love those things. They had them before 1800, in fact there ancient, but they only became really popular when Emeress Josephine started to wear them.
-Blue cape
-Fashion doll (the dolls name is Charlotte, after the queen)
-christmas gown.

I have tried playing that before, but it's exeptionally hard. However the game of graces would be so cute for Felicity and Elizabeth. You could make that for them. I took several crafts in Lissie's craft book to doll size.I tried to make the kite, but I didn't have all the materials. I think they should make "Felcity's toys and games" with a kite, the rolling hoop, game of graces and badledore (sp?).
You can make Shrewbury cakes with the cutters and sculpey.
