Shirley Plantation |
No Tea Party in January here on Colonial Quills but in February we'd like to cordially invite our Followers, and other guests, to attend our:
Valentine Soiree
on
February 7th
on
the
Colonial Quills
website
(Virtual site is Shirley Plantation
in Charles City, Virginia!)
Did you know? AMC filmed many scenes from their upcoming television series "Turn" at Shirley Plantation? And Shirley is celebrating its 400th anniversary!
Attire: Formalwear, come in character. Servants will need to report to the ancillary buildings for instructions.
RVSP: Right here!
Special: Several lovely giveaways including gifts from Lady Cessalye's gift shop, an antique reproduction blue and white china sugar bowl from Yorktown Victory Center, and a copy of Roseanna White's novel, which shares similar elements as Alexander Rose's "Turn" but is a Christian fiction.
CQ,
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely idea.
I plan on joining you on Feb. 7th for Valentine Soiree!
Blessings, Tina
Wonderful, Tina!!! I look forward to visiting with you there!
DeleteI am eager to include my RSVP for February 7, dear ladies. The ice has abated and it will fortunately be a lovely sunny day for sure, inside as without we will find. I have noted it on my calendar. half-Irish Kathleen ~ Lane Hill House

ReplyDeleteOh, I hope some of your characters, from your upcoming debut novel release, will be with you, Rebecca! Can't wait!
DeleteSounds splendid! I will ready my tea cup and saucer. See you at the event! I'm off to buy a new gown.
ReplyDeletePretty sure I'll be using my Noritake but I saw that Mrs. Carter has the same lovely Cluny Lace china that I once owned (wish I still did but I gifted it to a good friend!) Wearing my new gown, too!
DeleteI shall be here with you ! Heading to look for a gown and can't wait !!!

Linda--Love the frocks you've been posting on Facebook! Looking forward to the party!
DeleteI will be ever so pleased to attend. I'll give my wardrobe a once over and see if I have any pink or red.
ReplyDeleteWhat about a lovely teal, that you so favor, Kathy? And dress to the nines--this is virtual (no telling if we are actually in our jammies, though, okay?)
DeleteI can't wait tho my time slips away so fast now have to enjoy every day. But these Tea Parties are such fun. Maxie mac262(at)me(dot)com
ReplyDeleteI think so, too, Maxie, even though some of my friends make fun of me! I used to love throwing real live parties before my RA got the better of me! But we'll have a super time here!!!
DeleteCan not wait, Sounds fun.
ReplyDeleteIt should be! Hoping to have musicians--we'll see! And I've got the silver punch bowl polished, too!
