WBR Museum - Creole Cottage

This dress was displayed in the Creole cottage.

The WBR Museum in Port Allen, Louisiana includes some furnished buildings.
We were lucky to receive a guided tour…included with the price of the museum.


This is a classic French Acadian style home.


I love just about anything that is handmade.

I find the colors and stitches on this quilt give it a comfortable look.   The stitches are not perfect, neither is the piecing.  But it is a beautiful.  

We need to remember that it's ok not to be perfect stitchers.

The lovely old beds had (of course) mosquito netting.

Always love the blue and white dishes!

And no cottage would be complete with out a Sewing Machine.

Next…the Plantation Store.
