This was my introduction to sewing as a child. I sewed doll clothes by hand. I love this illustration by Jessie Willcox Smith found on Google Images. I really shouldn't show this photo yet because the pillow cases aren't right. I just threw them on while the proper ones were being laundered. This spread is my current completed sewing project. I purchased this large piece of old unbleached linen at an estate sale and hoped it would become my lightweight summer bedspread. It was already sewn in three panels. I brought it home and laundered it but the center panel was too wide and the two side panels were too long. So up to the attic I went to get reacquainted with my sewing machine. It was a pretty easy project and I'm pleased with the results. It was just a matter of measuring and a lot of ironing. I put French seams where the side panels were attached so there are no raw edges and I top stitched them too. The deep hem on the side panels is so much nicer than the shirt tail hem that was there before. I cannot sleep on or under anything but natural fabrics that breathe. If there is one drop of polyester or another synthetic, I can tell and it smothers me. This must make me a close cousin of The Princess and The Pea. Now I'm thinking about making some new curtains for my attic windows that I can close in the summer to block the morning sun. Will keep you posted. xo
We bought our very own Nordic summer cottage a few years ago. A little red summer cottage in South West Finland. The previous owner was a little old lady who had lived there her whole life but wanted to move to a flat instead. The cottage is located down a quiet road in a little…

Part 4 of the progress report on my Coventry Cottage dollhouse project.
In part 2 of my Coventry Cottage progress update, I am finally able to start piecing together the frame of my dollhouse.
This new-build 200 sqm timber framed house is situated in the heart of the picturesque Tudor village of Lavenham, Suffolk. All the neighbouring buildings are listed. Located behind an existing brick and flint wall, the form of the house, with its steeply pitched roof, is a version of the local vernacular and continues a rhythm of cascading gables when viewed from the street. The street elevation is intentionally laconic using a simple language of solid oak casements and lime-washed render over a red brick plinth. To the rear the composition of central gable, brick lean-to and chimney is more purposeful and modern. This impression is generated by the arrangement of projecting oak frames, full height glazing and oak panelled screens that unite the windows to the living area and principal bedroom in a single composition and exploits to the full the beautiful views and southerly aspect to the rear. The open plan ground floor is organized on the pin wheel principle around the curved form of a top lit winding oak stair. A music room / library and open kitchen are wrapped around a sunken living area and provide for relaxed entertaining, music making and also home working. The upper floors contain four bedrooms and three bathrooms, the top floor taking full advantage of the soaring volumes within the steeply pitched roof. A limited palette of traditional materials informs the interior, providing texture and grain reminiscent of more historic neighbours, but detailed in a contemporary way. Floors throughout the ground floor are pale brick, those to the upper floors oak. All are warmed with underfloor heating. Doors are full height and, like the windows are oak, the ironmongery bronze. Further detail is provided in the exposed white painted joists to all ceilings. Orange Cottage was a finalist in the Grand Design Awards, and has been extensively published.
