Baby On A Blanket, 1949

Baby On A Blanket, 1949
Uploaded for the Vintage Photo Theme Park theme of "blankets or quilts". Another challenging one for me! I really admire those of you who found blankets or quilts as the main theme in your posted photographs - cool! Here the blanket is a tartan looking fringed one - perhaps put down for a picnic.
This is a photo of my mother's very close friend Jill, who was a war bride and emigrated to New Orleans. This is a photo she sent to my mother, Hazel Gregory, in England of herself and her second child, Ann, taken when they were on vacation on Ottowa in 1949.

I'd better get with the Vintage Photo Theme Park program, and start trying to participate. Looks like fun!

Oh, I do hope you will consider participating! It's like a scavenger hunt through your collection each week, and--like Deborah says--it's great fun trying to find a photo to match the week's theme and then seeing what everyone else has found.

Check out the rules - it's SO much fun. I love the way it makes me think hard about my collection and look at it with fresh eyes. And it's always great to see what other friends come up with!

Alan and Deborah, thanks! I found a vintage photo with blanket yesterday, but noticed I was too late for that theme. I will search for this week's theme, though I unsure if I will find something.
