Released as Kirsten's Quilt in 1987, Quilt Kit (from Party Treats set) added in 1988, retired in 2009 with archival.Kirsten’s quilt has been sewn from individual patchwork squares, tufted by hand, and inscribed with the same special message that Kirsten’s friends wrote on hers. Best of all, the quilt just fits Kirsten’s bed and keeps her warm on cold winter knights. Keep Kristen’s doll, Sari, warm too by making her a tiny quilt with your patchwork quilt kit. Appliqué the little hearts in three of the blank squares, then embroider your initials in the other one. The kit comes complete with a hoop, appliqués, a needle, thread, and patchwork pieces already sewn together.Kirsten's quilt is really a coverlet, with no batting in between. It is a very nice patchwork quilt with no specific design. My version has random fabric but later versions use fabric from Kirsten's and the other historicals dresses, which I like better. The quilt is hand-tied with yarn in places and has blank squares for Kirsten's friends to sign their names. Miss Winston signed the bottom in her most elegant handwriting. Grade: A   It came with a quilting set to make a quilt for Sari. The quilt was already pieced and the set includes a little embroidery hoop and embroidery floss to emborider three pre-cut heart pieces and stitch yours or Kirsten's initials. Grade: A
