These are some tiny mats I have made. They measure 3.2cm, 3.5cm, and 4cm. I will be using these and similar for things like the dressing tables, occasional tables etc. They were really easy but turned out quite effective I think
Bought two of these lovely fireplaes, They are made of cast resin and came to me blank. I then have given them several layers of paint until I am happy with them. They will look super one in the sitting room and one in the dining room just got to find some working fire inserts that I like and then they will look like the real thing
I have just finished this blanket for one of the beds. I made it from a piece of felt, blanket stitched around three edges with a silk thread , bound the fourth side with a pretty ribbon folded in half. I then embroidered all over it with tiny daisies and leafs.  I am very pleased with it and I think I will do another one for one of the other beds.

My birthday is just under two months away so I continue making things ready for the big present!!
I love making tiny patchwork 3/8" squares, using paper in the traditional way so the next thing I have made is a quilt for one of the bedrooms.

Really happy with the end result and will be making up the bed soon.

This blog is about my journey to making and filling my beautiful miniature world. I am having a special birthday this year and am being given by my daughter my first dollhouse and I am going to fill it with beautiful things.
I will be making as much as I can and hope that you join me on my journey of my wonderful
 'Wisteria  House'.
I bought this beautiful carpet from a lovely lady on Etsy www.etsy.com/shop/Martaminiatures
 which is really beautiful but I wanted it to be a little more authentic  The first thing I did was to attach a sheet of contrasting felt onto the back of it to give it a more genuine feel and look.I then thought that the one thing it lacked was some fringing at either end and so made little fringing knots along the short edges and ended up with a really beautiful carpet.
