Tiny Books inspired by Tasha Tudor

 

Tasha Tudor was one of the most creative minds out there, she is an author, illustrator, craftswoman, farmer, gardener...a complete self made, and resourceful woman.  Her books are hoarded by many collectors (I have been one of those). If you do not know who Tasha Tudor is, you could be missing out. Her books (and herself) should be considered an American classic. 

Her daughter, Bethany Tudor  wrote a delightful biography,"Drawn From New England- Tasha Tudor a portrait in words and pictures". From her book (on page 75), I got the inspiration to make those little books with my daughter, adding my own twist to it.
