At our house I have a girlie who just had a birthday and received her dear friend Kit, one of the American Girl dolls.  And well, Kit has been played with and played with...and so we are busy at our house making some accessories for her.  So, this last week, my girlie and I made Miss Kit a quilted blanket out of two fat quarters. ...
