(Missoula, MT; September 1,
2003) Founded in 1998, A Fresh Collection was
established through the vision of a mother who wished she
could remember the memory of holding her tiny newborn
forever. Out of these emotions evolved the design of a
keepsake doll called the Original Fresh Start Doll,
shaped like a newborn, and personalized with the baby's
birth information embroidered on a t-shirt and ordered
the length of the baby at birth.
This fall, A Fresh Collection Owner
and Entrepreneur, Kati Patterson, will be launching a
revamped version of the previous Original Fresh Start
Doll with the My Baby Forever™ keepsake doll.
Besides the new branding, the body of the doll is being
slightly revamped to make it even more realistic and
softer then the original version with a new cream colored
gown, a knotted cap, softer embroidery fonts, and will
include a blanket. Sizes range in half inches from 17"
to 23". Also being introduced is packaging including an
optional and unique Peek-a-Boo Bag for those who would
like their keepsake gift-wrapped. The sleeping face of
the baby doll peeks out of a netted circular window in
the muslin gift bag.
There is no other product on the
market like My Baby Forever™. The concept is
innovative and the doll is practical in its application
as a keepsake doll for parents and grandparents.
Children love to cuddle and play with the hand-blushed
muslin faced doll. And the My Baby Forever™
keepsake is machine washable, too. The more it is
washed, the softer and cuddlier it becomes.
The keepsake doll has successfully
sold in catalogs such as Casual Living Magazine and
Femail Creations Magazine. The dolls are also sold in
many fine retail shops nationwide and via the web at
www.mybabyforever.com.
A Fresh Collection is continually receiving letters and
e-mail from happy customers who now purchase this doll as
their standard baby gift!
In addition to the My Baby
Forever™ keepsake doll, A Fresh Collection will be
introducing a new product which will bring the memory of
a mother's baby even closer to reality with the My Baby
Forever™ image doll. This 20" soft, fleece,
bouncing bundle of joy is made the shape of an infant
toddler with outstretched arms yearning to be held. An
image of the baby is transferred onto soft cotton and
hand-applied to the face of the doll. The face is then
surrounded with a gorgeous crocheted lace-trimmed bonnet
to match the lace trimmed bodice for the girl doll or a
brimmed cap and handsome pinch-tuck pleated gown for the
boy doll - both garments are handmade of natural muslin
in the U.S.
