The Keeping Home retail store specializes in modest and sensible patterns for clothing and for the home. I want to help you outfit your home and clothe your family with dignity!

If you are visiting from Virtuous Weddings, you may be especially interested in the categories "Wedding Wear" and "The Bride's Trousseau." In "Wedding Wear" you will find patterns for bridal accessories, bridesmaid dresses (in both misses' and women's sizes), men's accessories, and more. "The Bride's Trousseau" specializes in patterns for tasteful lingerie for the bride.

I offer a growing selection of modest and sensible Kwik Sew patterns. These are durable, multi-sized, and repeatedly reusable patterns. You can read about the Kwik Sew difference here. I am also adding other patterns from a variety of independent pattern companies (Brensan Studios, Chery Williams, Creative Keepsakes, Favorite Things, Love and Stitches, Sense and Sensibility, Sew Baby, The Paisley Pincushion).

Now carrying counted cross-stitch charts and other needlework patterns!

I also offer other odds and ends, so look around!
