Tasha Tudor Inspiration

A post on a forum inspired me about Tasha Tudor and I got my books out last night.  I have a few old ones but most are newer books.




I didn't realize I had so many of her wonderful books. I especially love the Heirloom Crafts book.



Hubby bought me this one for an anniversary gift several years ago. It is Pumpkin Moonshine, Tasha's first book in publication. This is a 2000 edition.



I was so surprised to find that it was signed by the author. Isn't Frank a darling? I was so excited I jumped up and down and read until midnight!
 
Like Tasha, I like to think of myself in 1830, a simple time where life seems slower, more kind and it completes me.
 
Blessings,
Pam

      Susan,
      Check her out. Wonderful inspiration for artsy, Early American and reenactor types.
