I just got this set today and am very pleased with it. The hat feels to be made from the same material as the now retired Velveteen Coat and it is very nicely made and the ribbon trim is pretty. It fits looks adorable on Kaya and fits her very nicely with her hair shells off.
The shawl as other have said, is printed and very stiff, but the pattern is nice and unlike some shawls (Kirsten's school shawl spring instantly to mind) it is a good size. Felicity is currently wearing it with her summer dress and the cap from her Town Fair outfit and the gold in the shawl seems to be a good match for the ribbon.
The brooch is plastic, very small and is a clip not a pin, but the pattern is very detailed and it looks like the real thing. I'm glad it isn't a pin since those put holes in the dresses, but the clip seems a bit hard to use as well. I am really glad they made this because not only is it beautiful, it was very important in the story as well.
I give the set an A because it is a very nice set, maybe a bit sparse but so is Kaya's.
