Booktopia Comments: What an inspiring book! So many brilliant designs for your Dolls House. They have stunning designs for carpets, rugs, cushions, wall hangings and many other items specifically created for Dolls' Houses. The perfect gift for anyone who loves furnishing their own Dolls House (even if you are buying it for yourself!).
Here's how to achieve a total look for your dolls' house by stitching miniature needlepoint furnishings in a variety of styles and colours - a different one in every room.
Felicity Price provides the inspiration and ideas for creating your own themed designs. Full-size needlepointers and miniaturists alike can gain confidence in stitching 1/12 scale by tackling small items, such as cushions and pictures, before moving on to the challenge of working up a matching rug or carpet.
Felicity's totally co-ordinated designs offer a unique approach to furnishing your dolls' house. Her collections range from the lovable, the fun and the pretty, to the formal and truly ravishing - all graded according to the level of complexity.
The designs include:
- Entrance hall
- Bathroom
- Nursery
- Bedroom
- Dining room
- Library
- Drawing room
- Siamese cat motif
- Nautical motifs
- Teddy bears
- Pansies and trellis
- Formal Chinese design
- Medieval dragons
- French Aubusson floral bouquet
By varying her colour schemes to match your dolls' house decor, each collection becomes very personal, and a source of real pride.
Felicity Price has so many ideas for 1/12 needlepoint designs that she has turned her hobby into a small business, but she likes to make time for stitching new collections, which is her real pleasure.
Delightful miniature items range from simple cushions and pictures right up to more challenging rugs and carpets.
The bathroom showcases a nautical theme; the nursery features teddy bears everywhere; and the resplendent dining room glimmers in rich blues and golds.
Basic guides to stitching, designing, and finishing acquaint newcomers with the art of needlepoint.
