My Twinn 18" Kim is the final rescue doll of the My Twinn rescue project.
I can't say how happy I am to have made it to this point after three challenging rescues over the last couple of months (and several years planning). 18" Twinns Berkeley, Cai, and Pearl are all the better for it too, and Kim has been patiently waiting in the wings to join them.

In Fixing Pearl Part I, I discussed some of the extra problems with Pearl's cloth body, and also one or two complications with her eyes. [node:read-more:link]
With both Berkeley and Cai successfully remade, it was time to look at My Twinn 18" Pearl and see what I could do to make her whole again too. [node:read-more:link]
In part I of my Fixing Cai series, I wrote about some of the more complicated TLC that this 18" My Twinn doll needed, including removing her factory wig glue (with varying sucess) and minimizing some damage around her eyes.
I think that getting through these tough parts of Cai's repair was largely a success. . . [node:read-more:link]
Sorry again for the poor quality images but yeah, I'm still having to use my phone camera and sometimes it's not too pretty.
This week I'm working on My Twinn 18" Cai. Cai was the last of the four Twins I collected for the My Twinn project I'm currently working on. [node:read-more:link]
In part I of the My Twinn Rescue series, I wrote about 18" My Twinn Berkeley's complicated eye history and then related my two-day adventure to clean up, comb out, and flat-iron Berkeley's really long, really tangled curls.
Now it's time to start looking at Berkeley's face. . . [node:read-more:link]
I'm starting with Berkeley for my Four Twinn Rescue project. I'm starting with her because she was the first of the four My Twinn rescues I collected starting in late 2015. She wasn't exactly a rescue then however; she was new. I bought her as My Twinn was closing its doors and dropping prices on all its 18" dolls. [node:read-more:link]
I collected these four MT dolls, Berkeley, Pearl, Cai, and Kim, with an intent to fix them up: give 'em new eyes, new hair, new clothes, new whatever each one needed. But as it's been, I haven't gotten back to them for a while and I think it's finally time I did. [node:read-more:link]
