Chasezzz that is so pretty! I love that you kept a part of the gown intact and made it into a fan. I can see why your friend's daughter loves it. I am sorry for your loss and hope that doing something so caring and in memory of your friend helped bring you some comfort as well.

Her is a little story just for ya'all..
I made a crazy quilt for my partner and when I was finished I fell in love with it and it matched my bedroom perfectly (I just moved in the house last year)...SO..I just couldn't bring myself to part with it(I know I was being greedy) so I decided to make another as close to the first one as I could..and I did make the second one and it was so very close to the first one that I was happy..I mailed the quilt to her this week, so I am going to post a picture of the quilt I kept and let you see my baby

[ATTACH=CONFIG]416298[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]416299[/ATTACH]Alaska Alice sent me a very colorful Crazy lil quilt with farm animals and a Home Run in the middle! It's a very bright and cheerful little quilt and I love it! She also sent me a pretty blue candle mat or small doily and a handmade pincushion. Nice job!

So many lovely quilts. Also love the wedding dress quilt. I have save my daughter's wedding dress for just this purpose one day. When my oldest married, I was freshly divorced. Her gown was beautiful and very expensive for me at the time...but a lovely classic. My youngest girl wanted to wear it for hers, had it slightly modified. Neither wanted it so I stored it away. Some day when I have the confidence to tear it apart and use, along with acquiring more skills...! Take care and have a great weekend.
