Caroline's Dolls House |
Caroline Webb, who lives in Thorpe Bay, Essex, sent these photos of her dollshouse. She has quite a collection of finished miniature needlepoint items, now, all over her doll's house. These were all stitched by Caroline's mother-in-law, who is still stitching - in her 80's ! |

This shows the 'Barbara (green)' miniature carpet design in the staircarpet version and the small rug version. There is also a 'Cluny Merchant ' Tudor doll's house wallhanging by the door on the right of the picture. |

Here, the same 'Barbara (green)' doll's house carpet design is shown in the large version , along with the matching miniature footstool and cushion . This shows clearly how matching designs stitched on different counts of fabric co-ordinate really well together - the carpet is stitched on 18 count canvas, the cushion on 22 count canvas, and the footstool on 28 count evenweave fabric. |

The circular ' Bella ' dollshouse carpet, just six inches in diameter, although often used in parlours and boudoirs, looks just as much at home in this pretty nursery. | |
| The deep tones of the jade green armchairs are set off by the ' Jill ' Orental-style miniature carpet in this living room. Despite being one of the largest carpets that we produce, this is one of the most stunning when finished, and Caroline's mother-in-law has really done it justice! |  |

The little ' Sophie ' dollshouse rug fits in well in this tiny attic room. An ideal beginner's project, this little carpet takes only a few hours to make, yet, as you can see, looks great when finished. | |
| The ' Tigerskin ' miniature rug is well suited to the formal look of this study. Based on the markings of a once-living real tiger, this carpet kit, signifying the epitome of Victorian domestic style, adds a ceratin air to this room. |  |
