Hello,
As I child of the late 70's I spent much of my time dressed in clothkits, indeed I still have my Kit doll - would it be wrong to get some more up to date outfits for her?!
My Mum wore a lot of clothkits stuff and I was wondering if you have thought of re-issuing any of your classic patterns from the 70's ? I remember some fab maxi and wrap over skirts in particular. I for one would definatly buy these patterns.
On another subject, are you planning to launch KIt in any other colour ways? It would be great to make some for my neices but would rather wait until they are more representative of themsleves.
Anyway, keep up the good work- I love it, a real blast from the past!
Rachel

Hi Rachel and many thanks for your message!
We do indeed have other doll colours coming, and next up is a girl dolly with brown skin and black hair and due to many requests we are working on a blonde. Though Ginger still seems to be the fave! We will shortly have for release a male companion, Freddie. Just working on something groovy for him to wear.
Vintage Clothkits are a possibility, it will be demand led!

Thanks for the reply! I look forward to the new Kit dolls, great to see you are expanding the range and making it more reprentative.
I for one would love to get my hands on some of the classic 70's designs……..just a couple! I'm sure there would be a real call for them, partly from a wistful rembering the 70's stance and also from a they are very funky designs stance!
Have I convinced you yet?!
p.s- is there going to be a greater range of womens clothing? 70's or otherwise!

I would love to see more women’s cloths available! Mum did lots of clothkits stuff for us as kids, and now I love making my own clothes, but find pattern laying and cutting a fag, especially on border printed fabrics, like those clothkits is so good at! More for women, please, I can’t have kids, so have no opportunity to use most of your range (and no, I don’t feel like making them up for other people)!!

I'm so pleased to see Clothkits back! I remember Clothkits fondly from my childhood and I've recently started making my own clothes so this is really great.
I don't have kids either so I'd love to see some more women's patterns and I'd absolutely love to get my hands on some vintage style patterns.
Now I'm off to decide which of the new kits to buy in the meantime…

My granddaughter is 6 months old and her mother (my daughter) has very fond memories of Clothkits outfits from pinafore dresses with lovely border prints to fairytale party dresses. Both of us would love to see them back and have the perfect person to dress them in.

I was pleased to hear Clothkits were back but a little dissapointed with the range.I too would love to see a return of some of the old designs ( or an updated version of them).I enjoyed making a number of the padded jackets in the early 80s ,quilting round each animal etc. inividually.I have two daughters aged 25 and 9 ( yes a 16 year gap ! ). I would love to make for the younger one things I made for her sister.I should imagine that the majority of your customers will be those of us who bought things in the 70s and 80s and the children who remember wearing them.I look forward to seeing the range expand. Meanwhile I'll probably buy a couple of Clothkitty dolls, one for each daughter!

Thank you so much for coming back. I to remember wearing your kits as a child and do still have a few of them for my 14 month old twins to wear over the next few years. I to would love the old patterns back (they were amazing) as I feel the new ones are a little too quirky, but maybe i'll go for the dungarees as I am very keen to get going.

I would love to see some of the old retro patterns come back. Also - I adore the little girls' dresses, but for me! Any chance of making them in adults size?

Yes please bring back some of the classic designs - wrap skirts, long dresses for adults or even just some longer skirts. Not everyone is comfortable showing off their legs in your current range.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE!!!
