Today we cut the 4 rooms of the house, the bedroom, the kitchen, the bathroom and Kitty's playroom. Cut 2 parts of the same colour (of your choice) for each room. We also cut all the fillings for in between the rooms.

When the cutting is done we finish 1 room (two walls) each week. That way you can work at ease to make the house more complete and fun to play with. Fill it in to your own idea, as minimal or as extensive as you like it.


We show you step by step how to make the bedroom, the other rooms are made in the same way.

Pin and cut room 1 of pink felt, with a chimney.

Cut all other room parts without a chimney.

We cut the kitchen from sunny yellow felt.

For the bathroom we choose a light grey and pink.

For the playroom we choose soft pink again, pink is after all Kitty's favorite colour.

Sew the foot end on the bed, leave the top open.

Then you can easily slide in the duvet.

Embroider the sun & moon on light & dark blue felt.

Sew a piece of board between the two pieces of felt.

With this cardboard you can change day into night in the bedroom. You can slide it in and out and turn it.

Cut out all the parts of the wardrobe then pin it on the wall.

First check if the doors close spaciously, the wardrobe is not yet filled.

Then stitch all the parts of the wardrobe together on the bedroom wall.

  • As you can see in the pictures, we leave various furniture open at the top, then Kitty can get into bed or in the bath.
  • Above you see Cathy, sitting at the table, Kitty taking a bath and Fifi in the playroom, stuck on a snap.
  • In the playroom the doll's house is open at the top, so toys can be tidied up.
  • In the other rooms we re-used shapes with little adjustments. F.i. half the wardrobe is also the fridge and a smaller wardrobe is used as the kitchen cupboard.
  • The sink and the stove are the nightstand without legs. The clock is the wasing machine's door but smaller. The picture frame is a window without panes, the wardrobe's shelves are re-used in the kitchen too.
  • Lots of items are fastened in the book, to learn kids how to open & close snaps, buttons or velcro and to tie a ribbon into a bow etc.

Next week we show you how to make the dolls and their clothes, then we are all set. Until then!
