Tasty new goodies.....

Candy Coated House and Gingerbread Family


Give in to your sweet tooth with this candy coated cottage playset! Loads of luscious lollipops, and colorful candy "buttons". The sweetest gingerbread family lives here- Mom, Dad, Brother, Sister and a bitty little Baby too!







English Muffin Breakfast Sandwich Set



One of my favorite breakfasts! A fresh english muffin, large sausage (or soysage) patty, slice of yellow american cheese- and an amazingly circular fried egg. Stack them any way you like it, have a crispy hashbrown and wash it down with some fresh squeezed orange juice.





Peanut Butter and Jelly Lunch



Get out your picnic basket and pack up this fun felt meal! A peanut butter & grape jelly sandwich, cheesy curls in a little bag, a strawberry juice pouch- and don't forget about dessert! A tasty chocolate chunk cookie.

Gulf Coast Cottage PDF











Last year for my Daughters birthday- I was looking for safe, imaginative, toys. It was really difficult to be sure the items I found in stores were REALLY safe. So- I commissioned my Father to build a kitchen set from solid wood- (immediately upon it's completion it was painted pink) and there began my obsession with felt.




I had never really been a big fan of felt- (things certainly have changed) but it seemed to be a great medium to start with. Being a professional upholsterer and seamstress- it was a task that was new and exciting. And so, my designs of play food have been coming ever since.




Welcome to the grand opening for Gulf Coast Cottage PDF your new resource for fabulous DIY patterns! Now you can know exactly what the things your children play with are made from- because YOU made it!

All of the patterns I make are inspired by my children and everyday life. A small sampling of what we offer.....




Four Fabulous Felt Mini Cupcakes pattern....a sampler sure to satisfy every ones taste! Carrot cake, pink frosting with a cherry on top, cocoa lemon chiffon and a chocolate mini cuppy with a drizzle of vanilla icing. Yum!!



Get ready for Thanksgiving early with this tasty Drumstick Dinner pattern- complete with mashed potatoes & gravy, and bright baby carrots!
