She's in her late 30's and done having kids (3 boys) so she figures no one will ever want to wear her dress in the future.
I guess it's a good idea but it'll break my heart.
We had so much fun and hunted high and low to find that dress, and she was gorgeous in it.
What do you think?
It'll be a VERY expensive quilt, if I do it.
Has anyone here ever made one?
I've sieen some gorgeous christening gowns and coordinating quilts made from weddng dresses. This way it can be used by lots of generaltions and becomes an heirloom. maybe she might consider this.
