Miniature Dollhouse Books

In 1995 and 1996, I frequented our local

library looking for miniature patterns.

I must say there are some very nice

miniature books on the subject from

various artists.

Miniature magazines are also a wonderful

source of patterns.

 

Gee, 10 years has passed by quick enough.

I cannot remember everything that

has happened in those years.

 

In the year of 2009, almost every month I

bought a miniature dollhouse book.

Until I collected up to 9 books that year!

Looking for patterns!

 

Some of these books, did not have any patterns in them

at all, merely just showing

dollhouses.

Although they were great books and I loved

viewing the dollhouses

and reading the material.

This was not what I wanted.

What I wanted was

Patterns, patterns and more patterns!

 

Below are 6 of the miniature dollhouse

books that I collected that year.

Below them are some miniature magazines.

 

See, I was on a mission!

Back in 1995-96 at the library I came across

a pattern and I made a suitcase.

I have been desperately hunting for it so

I can make me some more.

I never copied that pattern from the library book

and I did not even write down my source

so I could go back to you.

 

Back then so much was going on in my life,

raising my 2 girls, grandchildren came.

A new life was coming my way.

And I found it hard to keep up, but somehow

I squeezed college in again, among other

things and still found time to play

with my miniatures.

Thanks for stopping by!
