AUSTIN DOLL COLLECTORS SOCIETY

The Austin Doll Collectors Society is an organization of antique, vintage, and modern doll collectors, dealers, and artisans. We meet on the second Sunday of each month and our meetings are fun and educational. We begin with refreshments and socializing, and, following our brief business meeting, there is a special doll-related program and "show and tell." The Austin Doll Collectors Society is a nonprofit organization and is a member of the United Federation of Doll Clubs.

October 7, 2019, Meeting

October's meeting was the club's annual swap meet, with a wide variety of offerings brought by members.










Member Jan Irsfeld brought two dolls she had recently dressed as "show and tell."  This composition half doll is costumed as a Gibson Girl from the 1910s.  Jan stated that the doll sits by her sewing machine and looks askance if Jan uses improper language.


Jan dressed this doll as a mascot for the Austin Quilt Guild.  Her skirt is pieced together from vintage material.
