Delphinium Dream Cottage.

I designed and hand made this cottage & garden. The brickwork is done on the sewing machine then water washed with acrylic paint. The corrugated roof and the detailed cottage garden took me a year to complete. But it's my ideal cottage, so the time it took was worth it.

I have now designed many other cottages with beautiful gardens and now teach them in my home. If you want to see my other designs, visit my website www.debsdreamcottages.com and let me know what you think.

Material Notes
Textile materials :- thick cardboard, fabrics, ribbons & threads.

WOW that is truly amazing. I couldn't even imagine having the patience that must have taken.

wow i would love to have the skill and patience to be able to create something this magnificant and beautiful truelly love this desgin and the delicate flowers and all the details truelly injoyed lookin at the picture it looks devine

Thank you kindly for your lovely comments. Much appreciated. Out of all the cottage designs I have created, this one is my favourite. My chooks (who I adore) have destroyed my garden, so the gardens I create compensate for this. Anyone can earn this craft. The techniques are not too difficult. The only thing you need is......patience. Thank you again & happy stitching.
