Take care of baby in any historical era with a cloth diaper that ties closed, historically accurate and safer for play than pins. An itty bitty cap helps keep baby warm and can be made with plain gathers or with added lace detail in the back. An 18th century shift and a 19th century chemise, two types of baby shirts, complete a basic layette for baby. Both shirts have ties to adjust as baby grows to ensure the perfect fit.
