Cali Visits Foster

I am moving this post over from my history blog. It is from November 2016

While I set up for the Millinery in Miniature workshop, Cali explored Foster-Tuffs, the house Grandma interpreted for most of her 27 years at GCVM.

Cali wondered if I knew which quilts Grandma worked on. There are quite a few of them. Then she asked if this is one of the coverlets Peter talked about on Sunday.

“What is this space behind the curtain?”

The house was still dressed for mourning. Cali explored the many details.

Cali thought these stairs didn’t look too steep. She rather liked the wall paper and thought it would look nice on a band box.

Cali particularly liked the display of porcelain, soft paste and pottery. She recognized a few pieces too.

Cali is all ready to teach the workshop.

Looking for attendees and a quick photo together.


A shiny red apple for lunch.

A little hat to add to the trunk.
