Wow Karryn.
That gown is fantastic.
It looks beautiful.
Is it for a commission or is there a special family event about to unfold?

I was actually asked to make this for the grand-daughter of a friend of a family member. The baby’s mother is undergoing chemotherapy and the Christening will be a special but obviously difficult celebration.

I do not know them personally, but I was recommended to them as I made my DD’s Christening Gown when she was a baby, as well as most of her other clothing.

 

Thank you for your very kind comments ladies.

Karryn,
That must feel like a very special honour to be asked in the circumstances.
They will be so delighted with the result.
