Sister Visit -Nottoway Plantation

This is a beautiful Sewing Caddy we saw. I guess it is from the mid 1800's.

My sister came to visit me. 
One of the fun things we did... was visit Nottoway Plantation.

I wish they had filled it with time appropriate sewing items!
The inside scrollwork lifts out to place your project into a cubby.

 The front faces the Mississippi River.
Wow!
 

My niece came for a visit too! (photo used with permission)
My sister and my niece are in front of the side entrance.

Yes.  I think I could sit on this porch and stitch quite nicely, thank you!

And I love the lace curtains in the windows.

My birthday cake was a King Cake.  
If you don't know what that is...you haven't been to Louisiana at Mardi Gras time.
I had the needed help to blow out my candles!

I took an entire Birthday Week off to spend with my family.

And I had a great time!!

(Tomorrow I will answer phone calls, ship orders and respond to email.)

Thank you!
