Tasha Tudor's Heirloom Crafts [J0422]

1995 HCDJ (9 X 11-inches) in nice clean condition. A charming visit with America's beloved children's book illustrator, Tasha Tudor, as she welcomes us inside Corgi Cottage to watch and learn how she crafts items that are an integral part of her 19th-century lifestyle. Tasha Tudor uses traditional tools and techniques to make a variety of nineteenth-century items, including candles, baskets, soap, cheese, and marionettes.

From recent Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "Really enjoyed this look into how things are done the old-fashioned way."; "Tasha Tudors had a multitude of skills and knowledge and she was the definition of industrious. I am glad to know there are people who have retained some of these old ways of creating and hopefully are passing them down to the next generation."; "Tovah Martin presents a lyrical tour of author and artist Tasha Tudors home, and all of the crafts based on daily life from the 1830s that Tudor works and weaves."; "Interesting book, great for those who do arts and crafts of yesteryears and yearn to become self-sufficient."; "How I wish that I could have met Tasha Tudor. I have enjoyed immensely learning about this wonderful woman who enjoyed life, created things of beauty and did so in the way of her ancestors. What a delightful person!"
