In fact, I wrote a blog post about how Annabelle helped my blind granny teach me to read when I was 3, 60 years ago!: http://adventuresinbarding.blogspot.com/2011/03/national-crafts-month-national-womens.html. Considering that Granny was blind, I think she and my parents were very creative about it. Is it possible to buy a Hitty kit, or make one? Since my Annabelle was destroyed in an accident, I've often longed to make one, with all the things mentioned in the rhyme, and duplicating the bed Dadddy made her. Especially now that I've retired!--Barra Jacob-McDowellBarra Jacob-McDowellhttp://www.barrabard.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7489887697987474542.post-861528063952758302012-08-03T07:58:37.499-07:002012-08-03T07:58:37.499-07:00oh what amazing finds, such delighful treasures! t...oh what amazing finds, such delighful treasures! thanks for sharing..i thoroughly enjoyed and LOVED it all!! cheers...MarianAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7489887697987474542.post-11829590685603995372012-07-25T18:08:41.112-07:002012-07-25T18:08:41.112-07:00This post was an absolute delight to read!

It is a beautiful collection of items, and so well-documented, down to the wood used to make the various pieces of small furniture. I DO find it sad, however, that apparently this child, when she grew up, had no younger family member to which to hand this collection. But she did the next best thing--to place the items in this museum. IS it a museum or is it an antique store? I hope it's a museum!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16734007064893931861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7489887697987474542.post-16769916225973183602012-06-06T18:45:18.468-07:002012-06-06T18:45:18.468-07:00That is amazing Dixie, thank you for sharing this ...That is amazing Dixie, thank you for sharing this treasure with us.Sherri Farleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18106796132612922630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7489887697987474542.post-1626261882933490152012-06-06T17:21:34.420-07:002012-06-06T17:21:34.420-07:00Oh My!
