Homestead Haven Beginnings

New Book!!

I just got a new book and I wanted to tell you all about it!  It is called Mrs. Dunwoody's Excellent Instructions for Homekeeping. 

She is a Southern woman who kept a notebook in 1866 of all the practical wisdom and advice on the art of homekeeping.  You will love this book!  I just stumbled across it and wanted to share!

My sis has this book and loves it! I admit, I have "sneaked a few peaks" when I am over at her house:0)

The book sounds like just the kind I'd really enjoy. I will check it out on Amazon. Thanks for the tip!

I would gladly make you an apron. I was given this material and have more than enough to make a few more. If you would like one let me know.
