      I can still recite most of the Cities of Gold opening almost 40 years later. For whatever reason, I really fixated on the outfits of some of the characters and the show may have partially contributed to my interest in textiles and textile-adjacent things. l may or may not made myself a Zia paper doll so I could design many dresses for her (which all included quipu made out of embroidery floss…).

        I used to make historically accurate (for the time) models out of card when I was a child (Viking village complete with long boat, a medieval castle) I also made Roman type armour for my Sindy dolls, so you’re not alone in recreating what you enjoyed watching/reading about
        I’m glad your interest is still active, mine blossomed into a love of art and creativity, still often using that multipurpose material- card
