Baby Bonnets

I come across these baby bonnets every few years, so I may have photographed them previously. That being said, just in case, these are baby bonnets crocheted by my Grandmother for my sister (on the left) and my father. I should try to have them cleaned and (possibly) framed but they are so delicate that I hate to take a chance of damaging them.

They are real treasures...perhaps if you were to ask a museum how best to deal with them

Exquisite bonnets! These are treasures that should be evaluated by a historian (Winterthur perhaps?) before cleaning. They would be beautiful framed and hung! :)

Wonderful work by your grandmother. I will show this image to my wife who does various types of needle work.

I so enjoy seeing and hearing about treasures we have that are hand crafted by someone because of their love.

Your Grandmother was very talented too.
