When I was a kid my mom made a gingerbread house that was open at the back and contained two or three floors with a fireplace and furniture. It looked like a tall town house doll house.
She thinks the pattern may have come from Good Housekeeping but she's not certain. The house was quite tall and the pattern included furniture and even a mini gingerbread house for the table. My mom lent it to a friend and never received her pattern back. If anyone has a pattern I'd be forever grateful.
I recently found an image on pinterest of what I believe it looked like and I 've attached it here.
Thanks so much
