    Each one of them is wonderful and surely to be treasured. What a neat thing for your friend to have saved the house dresses and re-purpose them. I would give anything to have some of my grandmother's dresses...the fabrics are wonderfully retro. You did an awesome job and I'm sure she will be thrilled with all four.

    All are pretty, but the one with the dresses is my favorite.

    They are all so good looking. I like the pineapple one I think best. I like the dress one too. I like them all. A great idea.
