    Default wedding dresses made into gown for angel babies

    Hello....I was wondering if any of you know of anyplace that takes wedding dresses to be made for angel babies? I’d love to donate mine but can’t seem to get answers back when I message them.

    In the Greater Cincy or Indianapolis area would be great

    Please let me know

    Oh my goodness, I would hope someone would. my friend in England used to hit wedding dress shops for left over fabric bits and make lovely quilts with those. Good luck.

    A new sewing lounge opened up near me this year & they make angel gowns every third Thursday of the month. Volunteers come in to the shop to help make them. I know Texas is a far throw from Indiana but thought I would let you know in case you can't find anything closer to you.

    Google "Angel Dresses" and it should bring up a site that will tell you locations or the organizer's name and phone contact. It's a bit rough if they aren't responding to your messages, but these are volunteers (from what I understand), so their time is probably limited.
