Hello YouTube Friends!

I'm Kate, and I live here at The Last Homely House, where I can usually be found quilting, sewing, cooking, out in the garden with my Goose Eileen, or sitting on the Lime Green Sofa with Cat Rita. Join me, won't you?

Welcome to The Last Homely House!

Wool Illustration

I chose this name because JRR Tolkien, who wrote The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings describes The Last Homely House as 

“… the perfect house, whether you like food or sleep, or story telling or singing or just sitting and thinking best, or a pleasant mixture of them all. Merely to be there is a cure for weariness, fear or sadness”.

This is what I hope my house is for all the people who visit my channel.

The Year of Colour

2026 Calendar!

The Last Homely House calendar is back. This year we're celebrating 12 months of Colour from The Last Homely House.  Each page is bursting with joy as the seasons and colours change in my little corner of the world.

This is my BEST CALENDAR yet!

Lovely

The kit is lovely, I love the way it’s packaged. I have not been able to start working on it yet. Fabric is just beautiful. Can’t wait to get started on it.

Wonderful notebook

It is a wonderful and beautiful notebook. I just wish it had more pages for my calculations. For me it was very expensive to shop from the UK, as I had to pay customs and administration fees

Well Done

It was simple to place the order. Communication was great - I received regular email updates about my order.

Beautiful colours

I really enjoyed the slow pace of making this little panel. I’m undecided where I will put it but for now I can enjoy it where it is. The project size was very achievable, it didn’t become a UFO 😂. Thank you Kate & Anna.

I am delighted with the book and am nearly finished my first very small project, but doubt I will ever fill it completely.
The only downside - which I forgot about when placing my order - is the side effect of Brexit and had to pay customs charges which increased the price of the book considerably.
