Hey y'all so the Wedding dress to christening gown conversation complete! I just picked it up from the cleaners this morning.
Incase you didn't follow my other thread; I took my moms wedding dress from 1974 and made a christening gown for my daughter with the fabric. It took a while but I love how it came out. There are a few minor mistakes that I know about and can see but I doubt anyone else will notice. Basically the christening gown is identical to my moms original dress, except for the sleeves.
I also made a little flower headband for her to wear using scraps from the dress and tulle from her veil.
