I used to have a cabbage patch kid! Her name was Rebecca, and ironically I named my own daughter that! I didn't even remember the dolls name till recently....my daughter is almost 5...so I must have subconciously named her after that beloved raven-haired doll!! Since I have 3 younger sisters, they also had them too...each with matching hair. I remember when the ones with the cornsilky hair came out, and when they started making some of them all plastic, for the pool! ~MEMORIES~ lol. Thanks for this post  |

I had one of those.I remember adults actually fighting for them in stores and camping out at 3am for the toy store to open around christmas.My great-aunt won one from a charity raffle and she gave it to me.It was my most prized posession until one day I forgot her outside and my boy cousin submerged her in water.  |

That was really interesting to read! :-D I had a cabbage patch doll where you pulled on her ponytail and it got longer, then you pulled again and it got shorter. Haha!  |

My sister had one that sang and when you put yourfinger over her mouth, she blew rasberries. I also had one that made a nasty burping noise like it was spitting up :-x  |

I can remember going into the store & seeing mothers argue over who got to the Cabbage Patch Kid, first. I loved those dolls.  |

Oh yes, I used to make clothes for these dolls and made the most adorable fancy clothes for them! I finished all the seams too. I sold a ton of these little clothes and even made red or Green velvet coats with white fur collars and around the wrists and lined with white silk . These were made exactly as if I was making clothes for a person.I also made red flannel pajamas with the little "drop seat" and little housecoats too. I loved doing it!lol.  |

I remember standing in line to get my child a Cabbage Patch Doll and watching women slug each other over dolls. I got one but only because of a raincheck and still there were women fighting over the few dolls left for even that. I happened to get a cute one that was just what my daughter wanted and think she still has "andrea" around and that doll is 22 years old.  |
