I MADE MY SON'S CHRISTENING GOWN FROM MY DRESS AND I'VE NEVER REGRETTED IT. IF ANYONE HAS MADE A QUILT FROM A WEDDING DRESS I'D LOVE TO SEE IT. LUCKY BABY WITH SUCH A TALENTEDGRANDMOM.

Gorgeous. If it's going to be passed down to others, it might help to embroider the baby's name and baptismal date on the slip for each baby that uses it.

Lily is beautiful and so is her baptismal gown.

I did the same with my wedding dress over 40 years ago , for my daughters grown , then when her children were christened 35 years later we used it again , I made a fine cotton petticoat to go under it and embroidered their names on it it looked so lovely , and has been now put away for great grandchildern .
