Hitty Moon

Hitty Moon was during the first week of February in 2007 by TC Vollum to celebrate the Hittygirls Book Club reading of Hitty.

Hello, My name is Hitty Moon. I was carved to accompany a book group reading of _Hitty, Her First Hundred Years_. As you can see, my carver took a few liberties with the construction details. I have a ball-jointed neck, shoulders and hips instead of the simple pegging of Original Hitty.

Some people might think this a disadvantage - but it lets me gaze thoughtfully off into the distance. A useful skill when dealing with some folks. I don't quite know why my carver refused to put my name onto the front of my chemise... she SAID it would interfere with my flowers... Here I am in my homespun dress. The fabric was a gift from Vickie Applegate. This dress is appropriate to the book...

But I prefer my party dress. I requested it for my "coming out party." Here's my tippet. Since I live in Hawaii, I felt lace was more practical than fur. I did accept a muff - It's not very practical here but it looks so pretty.
