That's a beautiful christening gown. My only thought about making a christening gown out of a wedding gown is that I can't imagine trying to hold a squirming baby in a satin dress. Hard enough to hold them in regular clothes. My DDIL wanted something out of the leftover fabric from the wedding gown I made her so I made her a silk quilt; in my avatar. The white border is the leftover fabric, and the rest is silk I have collected over a couple years to make it.
