Even More Great News The Tussie Mussie and Crabtree and Evelyn Brochures are almost ready to go. They have been a long time coming but as I have said so many times, my ability to finish brochures and my new books depend upon my workload which has been totally all embracing and staggering for quite some time and especially since the launch of my Wedding Book which is still selling fast. I really do need a longer day and night! My record so far for getting to bed is 5.15am and I’ve even stayed up all night on the odd occasion. Orders for these brochures are now being taken, please allow 28 days for delivery as I already have a large number for each on order. Use the order form and details on Sue Jo Publications

I can’t believe how different our favourite dolls look. Marie (far left) is wearing the new Gertrude wig. Lois (left)  and Eulane (above) are both wearing a Hannah wig.
Don’t they look simply amazing! I just can’t wait to start dressing all my new dolls. Sue and Mandy have really inspired me and I know they will inspire you too. They are in great demand at the moment. So much to choose from.
