I was dusting the shelve that I keep these on and thought they deserved a picture on my site. So I posted one there.
Do any of you girls have her books? I would like to find some of her Children's books. I'll be looking.

I recently found this vintage hand colored print..it is framed with vintage ribbons around the image..I have no idea how old it is...just that it is quite old..but I could not resist it of course...a Kate Greenaway...couldn't resist it for only $8

isn't it lovely though? I thought so. I'm a sucker for stuff like this.

here's some of her art work..she is long dead now..she was from the 1800's to 1901

another wonderful illustrator though of children's books...along with the likes of Beatrix Potter and more.I'm sure if you like Tasha Tudor's illustrations you'll find these ones just as delightful.

I love, love love, her books. She and Mary Jane are my role models. The books that I have of hers I got off ebay but I don't have any of her childrens books.

Tina, I see now, she did the drawings for the book. I would love to have that one too. But I checked it out at Amazon and its very costly! How nice that you were able to get it. I will be looking for that one.

I love her. She was so interesting, can you imagine living like she did? She once raised a crop of flax and took it all the way throught the process' to the end result of a garmet made of linen.

Those are beautiful, Nancy Jo. Did you find them in thrift stores or online? My friend Susan has become fascinated with Tasha Tudor. Susan says the earlier editions are very expensive.
