Isn't it amazing how a new life brings everyone together in a circle of unity? She is just precious. Your work is just so pristine. Enjoy the big celebration.

I have heard of people reusing their wedding dresses, but never knew how. Yours is wonderful.

What a beautiful idea!
My niece didn't want to wear her mother's dress, so we remodeled (adding bright underfabric) into mother-of the bride dress!

That is lovely - the sentiment and the work. This gown will be much easier to pass along than a wedding dress. Styles for christening/baptism gowns don't change, where wedding dresses change from year to year. And I love that everyone has played a part in its creation.
