I joyfully emerged from my box from American Kit Company in the depths of January winter weather this year. My dress partially completed was finished and the shopping ever since has been a daily experience. My owner has a small leather oval trunk, won as a door prize at a NIADA convention in Chicago full of clothes for me. Knit shawls, woolen capes, and many cotton dresses. Then my toy box is a Nantucket straw purse that is bursting at the seams. I make many trips with her shopping tucked away in her purse pocket in case anything looks my size.
Yesterday we hit a bonanza, felt formed hats in pastels and tiny wire hangers for my dresses.
I'm named after a favorite Aunt of hers, so feel honored to have the name carried on.
Right now I'm checking out a room box just for me. I have a new bed with a quilt, and a traditional light blue settle, and other furniture is in the works. Also I have a big handbraided round rug. It's so fun to think small.
