Here is a picture of Lily and her mommy. Lily is wearing the dress and jacket I made from her mom's wedding gown. If you look closely you will see the little braclet that her mommy made from the beads we took off the dress to sew it. Mommy has a matching bracelet.

What a wonderful gift. I have planned this for my dress just not quiet there to cut it. Maybe it is because my kids are too young to have babies :)

Beautiful dress, baby and family. I have a feeling that you'll be sewing a few more dresses for your granddaughter before she's all grown up. God bless you all.
