Default does anyone make angel gowns,hats and tiny quilts?

after just loosing our Great Grandson at a tiny 9 inches and seeing him wrapped in a tiny blanket with an adorable little gown I want to think about making some of these I wondered if any one has made any and what kind of patterns you used. Can anyone give me ideas

Donna I'm so sorry for your loss and this precious baby's parents!

I've never heard of angel gowns but if you do a search on line I'm sure their must be some websites that could help.

I am also sorry for your loss.

I googled "angel gowns" - one organization uses donated bridal dresses.

So sorry for your loss. Your heart must be heavy. I have a file in my pinterest account for a lot of NICU gowns and angle wraps patterns and ideas. I will send you a link in a PM because I am not tech savy enough to tell you how to find or follow me through the pinterest world.

About 4 years ago, I initiated an angel gown project and our guild made some of the most beautiful gowns for both boys and girls. They were given to a labor and delivery head nurse I knew in my church to distribute. She related many times how touched the family was at such a sad time to have such a special gift for the occasion. As I was making them, I would cry knowing how the gowns were to be used, but at the same time hope it could be beneficial to a family in crisis. I found a pattern online. So sorry about the loss of a precious baby.

How terribly sad. I wish I would have known about angel gowns when my baby died. So small I just wrapped him in my favorite fabric. The only pregnancy I ever had.

Here is a good reference for sewing, knitting and crochet patterns.
