She was an amazing woman. I had the pleasure of meeting her and many of the people in her book. We talked about cooking on an open hearth. If you can, buy this book, it is filled with such precious stories from our dear Tasha.
"It satisfies me to spin and knit and weave. I love to be self-sufficient, to learn how to make everything I use.
I feel at home with a spinning wheel. It's very soothing, the white of it; it's like a cat purring."
~ Tasha Tudor, as quoted in The Private World of Tasha Tudor and Richard Brown
Having Tasha's own work and words saved for us in the pages of so many books is a great comfort and gift.
She was photographed most often by Richard Brown, allowing us to savor her not only in our memories, but in the images he captured.
