Default It is done

Early on in the year my daughter in law asked if I would like to make the christening gown for my granddaughter and I replied "let me have a look and think out what is entailed and we will take it from there". Last month they set the christening date for 27th April so it was time to make a decision make or buy. DIL and went shopping and saw a few gowns but nothing that she wanted as it had to be not lacy, not frilly or ruffles so with that in mind I set about and designed a gown and this is what I came up with.

First photo shows the front with the bonnet

And the second photo is of the back.

Today my family is coming over to celebrate Easter Sunday with us so I will fit the sleeves. If any final adjustments need to be made I have a few days to do them.

Thank you for looking.
