Do you like doll houses? I do, partly because the rugs and wall hangings and cushions and footstools are usually done on needlepoint canvas or silk gauze. And partly because my cousin and her husband built them from scratch as a hobby. Janet Granger likes them, too, and designs the needlework that furnishes many a doll house. She just posted a customer's house, one that is Tudor. It's a fun browse.

If you are curious about Janet's designs, check out her website. She ships her charts and kits and things like silk gauze pieces from the UK but there's not a delay getting them.
