i can't wait to make these... when i turned up, the wedding dress & train was actually the 'great grandmothers'!!

OMGoodness!! i thought!! and you want me to cut it up!!! eeeeek!!

i'm going to make them a dress & bolero each. these will be their christening dresses, and then when the girls are a little older, the youngest girl will wear the older ones dress for their confirmation with their nana's & great grandmothers veils and tiaras...
just beautiful!!

i'm actually quite excited about making these!!

the dress i will make is the photographed dress, but it will be up to the knee, with the bolero made from lace (& lined)

the great grandmothers wedding dress which i am using, is plain satin with lace trim at the top, arms and hem of dress, and the train is embroidered satin. i will get one dress out of each and the boleros will be made of the lace.
