Penny Richards' photos with the keyword: baby

I made this card for a friend's daughter, who's having a baby shower this week. Image is from my own family albums--I don't know who mother or baby are, but they're so sweet. Background watercolor is from scrap paper in our school art room; there's also a leftover painted strip of cardboard, and two punched pieces held on with a brad, and some machine sewing, ink, rubberstamping.

I crocheted this baby mat for a friend's granddaughter, from strips of t-shirt fabric found at Trash for Teaching in Gardena (they're donated leftovers from factories, in this case from American Apparel). I added handles and ties, so that it can also be used to tote bundles, like laundry or beach towels. Completely washable, of course.

Turned up in a set of photos my mother-in-law gave us--so the baby might be someone from Philadelphia--but that's all I've got. Cute though!
