Hitty Morag and Hitty Madge finally managed to get out in the garden today after the busyness of Christmas and the New Year celebrations. They went in search of some flowers...</div>

Hitty Morag was the first to find a little purple flower, although unfortunately it hasn't shown up especially purple in the photograph.</div>

Hitty Morage suggested to Hitty Mildred and Hitty Madge that they have a turn at opening the Advent Calendar today. Of course they thought that was a great idea.</div>

Hitty Madge, Mildred and Morag were thrilled to get a package in the post today. It was the New Year's Swap gift and had come all the way from Canada. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The lucky recipient of these wonderful items has been invited to a Time Traveller's Ball for New Year's Eve. There is a lovely crochet dress, purse and head wear as well as the cute little invitation.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They wonder who they should nominate to wear the outfit and attend the ball.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It was a unanimous decision that Hitty Joyful should attend. She works tirelessly in the Rose Cottage Tearoom and always remains cheerful. Plus they were pretty sure the outfit would fit her perfectly. </div>

Hitty Madge and Hitty Morag have been explaining to Hitty Mildred that she really does have to take some responsibility for the little one and were expecting some explanation as to what has been happening while she was away. They are not sure she is listening to them properly and are concerned she is just giving them lip service. They have tried to suggest that perhaps the little one (who Mildred still hasn't told them her name!) might need a seeing eye dog and some tiny glasses... but Mildred must decide. They leave her to think about things....</div>

Some time later it seems that she is still very reticent to give them any explanation as to the little one or make any decisions... she hasn't as yet spoken at all about her last few years away, so it is still a mystery. It has been suggested that perhaps she just wants to move forward and leave it all behind.</div>

Hitty Madge and Hitty Morag took their sister Hitty Mildred into the garden for some fresh air as it has been a lovely day today. Cold but nice.

Hitty Madge and Hitty Morag on behalf of the Rose Cottage Hittys welcome home another Hitty who left in early 2015 to live elsewhere.

As it was supposed to be a 'Winter Charm Swap' with "no Christmas or Holiday fabrics", I was surprised to see so many of those sorts of fabrics included, but no problem as there is more than enough to make a least two, possibly three quilts, so all good fun. I am quite sure the Rose Cottage Hittys will be absolutely delighted to get a Christmas Quilt in due course!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I decided to go with a blue theme, as I wanted to make Hitty Morag a quilt, and she seems to really suit the blues.</div>

Deciding how to edge it was tricky, as I wanted to utilise the fabrics I was sent, and the fit was not easy... as I had included some reds in the layout I picked the red fabric strips from one of the packages to border the blues.</div>

These swaps a such fun to take part in. To think this little quilt is made by me, with fabrics from across the world kindly given by lots of lovely Hitty friends is a real treat.</div>

A mouse in the house, this really will not do,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
especially the size of one that looks like it should be in a zoo!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This rather large mouse appeared today</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hitty Morag really does wish it would go away!</div>
