My First BLEs (Babyland Exclusives)

Image
  For the past 10 years when I first started collecting, I never bought a BLE (Babyland Exclusive) because I thought they were too expensive.  I wish I did buy some back then because I really missed out on some cuties.  So I decided to buy some now.  Two 20" and two 17" Babies.  I must say, I was quite surprised. Maddie Marie. Her expression is so cute. I almost didn't get her because she wasn't on the website , but I saw her on the CPK Fan Page . I asked if she was available and was told that they had complaints about her hair being thin in the back. I still got her and I don't think her hair is thin. Her sweet shy face reminds me of my niece, Maddie. She's 20" tall and has OOAA1-21 on the back. I'm assuming this is "head mold" 1, and the year 2021. Her head looks a little "squished" in real life, as you can't see it in the photo. Her vinyl head (as well as the others) is a different plastic than the usual vinyl on the mas

Updated Teddy Bear Iron On Patch

Image
 I recently purchased this new embroidery software and decided to redesign the Teddy Bear patch to resemble more closely the original Cabbage Patch Kids bear patch on the Teddy Overalls.  I digitized it completely from scratch.  The patch that I made previously was with software that was extremely limited in what I could do, and I didn't have the actual teddy bear patch in hand like I do now.  So, head on over to my youtube channel ( youtube.com/@cpkdiana ) for the new teddy bear reveal, then go to my etsy shop for the embroidery file or the iron on patch.
