Cut out a square or rectangular pillow the color of their bedroom or the color of the bridesmaids dresses. Then sew the lace down, using mitered corners so that it resembles a picture frame. Then you can either embroider some of the flowers from the bouquet or put a (picture on fabric) of the couple in the center of the pillow.

Similar to my thoughts.

Embroidery the date and place on a piece of plain fabric (maybe heart shape). Frame it with a long 32 x 12 frame. Even a shadow box if there is anything 3d that you want to put in the frame.

Use it in crazy quilt blocks. Small crazy quilt blocks with a wedding photo on fabric would make a lovely wall hanging. Can you get some of the bridesmaid dress fabric, or something close, to go with it?

What about saving it to use in a Christening gown?

My suggestion also.

You could make a wall hanging with it as the centerpiece; maybe cut in an oval, and embellish it or make it a one piece quilted fancy

it's from her veil. I suggested something for the baby, but you know i'll be making it.
I just threw out all my scrapbooking stuff. now I wish I had my oval cutter. i'll make due.

Maybe a table runner or one to go on their dresser.
