These three little gals have been on my mind for a looong time. They’ve finally made it out of my head here for a little debut. Kit, Chloe and Louise are three best friends who are up for all sorts of adventures and hijinks. What kind of gals are they? Well for one, these are the kind of girls who know how to stitch in a ditch.
A captivating gang of 24 huggable, lovable creatures to sew—from classics like Margot, a topsy-turvy doll, and the button-jointed teddy bear Bjorn Bjornson, to irresistible Evelyn, a wool felt inchworm decked out in mod glasses and a kerchief, and Koji, a fiercely cute spiked softie monster. There’s something for everyone here—from kids to grown-ups and from beginning sewers to advanced dollmakers. Published by STC Craft, August, 2010.

“Well for one, these are the kind of girls who know how to stitch in a ditch.”
brilliant.
These three have to be my favorite stitchettes ever (and I have all of them)! So sweet!
Can’t wait to get this one! I have an aunt who quilts and this would make a perfect gift for her (stitched-up by me, of course). Really, really sweet.
Darling. Can’t wait to get my hands on those little ones! 😉
Adorable – this would make a great present for friends who quilt!
How wonderful!
My daughter is a lefty. Looks like someone will be getting a special stitchette softy!
Thanks for all the inspiration.
Could you add little Amish bonnets on the side as an alternative?
That is TOO cute!
I adore that Hilary! Good job, as always! 🙂
My middle name is Louise, too! I always love All your work. Keep it up, Hillary.
Very cute! I’m glad you’re out of the basement I thought we were going to have to send someone in after you 🙂
ack! this is so adorable! the little girl with the buns in her hair is to die for.
Gah! I love it!
My six year old daughter is a big stitchette fan (she’s done 3 on her own) – and Santa brought her the Kit American Girl doll for Christmas. How very timely you are, Hilary!

How cozy! LOVE Kit’s hairdo.

I like it sooo much!! And I want to say a translation of a Turkish idiom, “I hope your hands will always be healthy” 🙂

I just finished reading Hattie Big Sky by Kirby Larson,it’s about a sixteen year old girl homesteading in Montana.Great story and quilting was a shared pastime in it. Ginny
I love this scene; it’s such a nod to our quilt-making past.

:heart:
Best stitchets for a gift for my friends,my cousins and my aunt!LOVE this!
I love this…how limited?
not too terribly limited, there should be enough for everyone interested, but we’re not going to reprint them when they run out. at least not any time soon. we just can’t afford to keep everything in the shop in stock.
Way too cute!! This are a must have!
I just saw your little friends stitching at a quilt frame and loved it. Today my friend Ali invited us to her house to quilt–a bonus get-together. We are in a quilt group of seven women who get together every month. Three of us were able to come to quilt with Ali today–she made soup and homemade bread and jam for our lunch. It was such a great time–good for our spirits kind of an afternoon! Then this evening I see your 3 quilters! Love it!
I am getting on the mailing list RIGHT now!!
Where may I purchase the three girls at the quilting frame. Also I would like to have permission to use the photo at a Children’s Fiber Arts Festival as my introduction to interest in quilting.
I would appreciate your response.
Thank you
Wow, your items inspire me to keep doing what I love to do…
