April Quilt Surprise!
Malarkey and Viola heard a thump on the front porch…
.
.
…and found a little packet addressed to the Quimper Hittys in the mailbox!
.
.
A pretty wrapping…
.
.
…a sweet card with butterflies on it and love inside it…
.
.
…and a beautiful beautiful hand made quilt with gorgeous colourful fabrics on the front…
.
.
…and starry-flowery quilting all over (but especially visible on the cosy flannelette backing).
.
.
It is such a lovely gift that they don’t know if they want to sleep under it…
.
.
…or dance on top of it!

Thanks so much to our Hitty friend Kate Chiconi who made this wee quilt with love and sent it to us all the way from Australia!


















What a beautiful surprise. The Hittys have a special friend in Kate.
The Hittys indeed have many friends, and Kate is truly a special person!
sleep well, happy dreams little Hittys.
They love the quilt – so bright and cheerful, as well as cosy and kind!
So beautiful, Fascinating. Thank you, Love, nia
Dear nia, we love the quilt, and other little gifts from kind friends (like you!). It really makes the world seem less harsh, and more generous!
Exactly and we need this dear Hitty Lady, and We Love You, Thanks, nia
This is a very beautiful and thoughtful gift.
It’s so pretty and such a kind gift! We love reminders like this – that though some things are hard to comprehend, little kindnesses are really meaningful.
Kate is pretty awesome! What a lovely quilt for the Hittys and so glad they are able to help retrieve mail 🙂
Kate is awesome! And the Hittys are always up for a little clambering about!
It’s lovely to see this mini masterpiece with the Hitty family. It’s a gem.
The Quimper Hittys are some of the luckiest Hittys in the world – we think!!!
I have no doubt!
I love everything about this 💜💜💜
It was such a kind thought…The Hittys are feeling so grateful to be the recipient of this little jewel of a quilt!
it looks perfect!
It is perfect – in every way!
It’s so pretty! (And these dolls have the sweetest faces!)
It is so pretty isn’t it!? These two dolls were carved by Janet Cordell and Adina Huckins, sister carvers, and good friends.
