Sewing Room in the Flavel House

Sewing Room in the Captain George Flavel House, Astoria, Oregon July 30, 2001

That's not a typo in the date. I dug way back into the archives for this one, just because I like it. I haven't been inside the Flavel House since I took the photo, which was about six weeks after I first arrived in Astoria. I had to see the place, which in so many ways reminds me of the way my grandmother's house in California used to be; it was built at almost the same time. The Flavel House is lovely inside, and definitely creates a time warp when you step through the doors.

    I love the feeling you get when inside a home of this age. So much character. Glad you dug this one out.

    This reminds me a lot of the house I grew up in. My mother made clothes - sometimes for Hollywood folks when we lived in L.A.
