People's tastes change, sometimes doing a total reversal. I adore Victorian houses and clothing, yet finding myself building in storage and just looked around. My house is now almost back to the purity of it's age, which is late 1930s/early 40s. And while I love Victorian excess, I find it is more soothing to have very little stuff on display, thus the storage out of sight in window seats, closets, drawers in the hallway, etc.

And from soft flowered quilts to sharply contrasting colors, but best of all I love those "floating" patterns with black outlines on part of each block. Love them now. What I'll love next year is up for grabs!!!
