I made a quilt using fabric for this but the lace would be pretty too.
You could tie the gathers with ribbon or something else decorative.
Each square could be different colors...

My daughter didn't want my wedding dress either ( old victorian style, lace, lace and more lace) so I took it to a seamstress and and had Baptismal gowns made from it. I had one done for each of the children for when they had kids. We didn't have any family heirlooms, so to speak, but now, they each have one.

I am actually going to cut up my mom's wedding dress and make a tote bag for my niece who is getting married in June. That way she will have a little of her grandmother with her including a lipstick stain which I do not plan to remove.
Actually, will probably make two as my other niece will get married someday as well.
