So very pretty and a great way to celebrate embroidered ethnic clothing. I think such clothing is gorgeous and so deeply meaningful and appreciated.
It was such a lovely thing for Tansy’s Ukrainian-Canadian friends to do for her! Tansy loves the idea of a special day to wear it – we only learned about the holiday this year!
Thank you. I learn so much from your blog.
You’re very welcome – I thought it was an interesting and special holiday – and the Hittys love any celebration that involves textiles.
I am a great fan of Embroidered Hitty clothing…this example is wonderful and so fitting to honor Ukranian heritage at this periolus time in their country. Thank you for sharing such a special ensemble.
You are very welcome – we love embroidery-decorated Hitty clothing too – and you make some very fine examples!!
So sweet and the outfit and doll are just lovely. Story is so sweet also
