Welcome to My Red Cape. Long ago in another time my husband Jack and I lived in a little old red house. It was the stuff of dreams to us for the few years that we were there. I live there still a number of hours every day, in imagination, with old dolls and paintings and fabrics and feather trees. I draw inspiration and happiness from the memories of that space in time and share some of it here with friends who remember how to step with Alice through the looking glass and take delight in whimsies and antiquities. ~ Edyth O'Neill

A special collection








































































































































Yesterday our antique collectors group met in the home of an outstanding rug hooker and teacher. She chose mending old hooked rugs as a topic of focus for out meeting. She has many hooked rugs through out her lovely home as well as treasured Americana. (The pair of portraits I am proud to say was bought from Jack and me many years back when we had our shop.) e

I'll echo Rebecca and WoolenSails - an absolutely beautiful home! I wish I could see it in person but I'm on the other side of the country.
