My newest Hitty is made of basswood and is currently listed for sale on eBay.   She stands 6 3/8″ tall.   I am very pleased with how she turned out and am delighted with how smooth she ended up.

Ms. Michelle Best recently gave me some sanding tips and so I wanted to try them on basswood, and I must say the end results turned out fabulous!

My newest Hitty has gone to live with Michelle Best.  She is made of Hickory wood and was a delight to carve.  For those who do not know Michelle, she is another carver who creates the most delightful and beautiful Hitty dolls I have ever had the pleasure of owning.

Hitty Michelle was carved by Ms. Best, and I can only dream that one day I may be able to carve such sweet and endearing Hittys as she.
