Gives instructions for making dolls, dresses, sweaters, hats, socks, overalls, sailor suits, pants, shirts, quilts, buntings, bibs, and pillows, and demonstrates basic crocheting, knitting, embroidery, and sewing techniques This is a book of projects suitable to make for baby showers, or for the expectant mother to make before her baby is born. In addition to clothes, there are patterns and step-by-step instructions for pillows, quilts, and toys. Some designs include embroidery or smocking, while others are knitted or crocheted. Sizes are for babies up to 24 months. This book covers essentially the same ground as Margaret Boyles' Designs for Babies ( LJ 9/1/83), although Perrone's projects appear to be simpler in design with less hand work. Public libraries where the Boyles book or Eleanor Van Zandt's The Complete Book of Babycrafts ( LJ 2/1/82) are popular will want to consider.
