Welcome! Winter Cottage is a small farm dwelling where hooked rug patterns & simple goods are made by hand one piece at a time. Inspired by vintage designs I offer rug hooking patterns and small needfuls like pincushions and doll quilts. Each piece is designed and created by me in my hillside cottage. I hope you enjoy the simple industry of Winter Cottage.
I'm a rug hooking artist from southeastern PA who loves creating new things that reflect the endearing look of handwork done by women from decades past. Working with my hands is very satisfying and I love to help others be able to experience the same sense of satisfaction and accomplishment. For this reason, I am happy to provide patterns so that if you don't like to draw, you can still give rug hooking a try. My patterns come in two forms: paper that you will need to transfer onto a foundation cloth, and on linen with the pattern drawn, edges stitched, and ready to hook.
All the doll quilts, pin cushions and other needfuls are finished products. Please note, that there may be intentional aged spots, a frayed edge or two, even a pin hole. But this is all in keeping with the intent to give the piece an aged appearance. All is done in good taste and within the bounds of what you would expect for an antique treasure.
Inspiration for my work is drawn from the old textiles and legacy of the farm women who helped shape my home state of PA. From the handwork of Quakers to Pennsylvania Dutch and all in between, I try to have my work honor their legacy.
Everything in my shop is made by me in my small cottage that sets on a hillside surrounded by rural farms in Berks County, PA.

I've been making things with my hands since I was a little girl. I've raised four boys in my home state of PA and now my husband and I enjoy the grandkids. I love to quilt, hook rugs, hike, pick flowers & antiquing...add coffee and it's even better!
