I haven't made a christening gown but I did make a bonnet to go with our
family gown.
I made the honeycomb rings edging from Geraldine Stott's 'Visual
Introduction to Bucks Point lace'. I found it grew quickly & was a pretty,
narrow edging.

I am in the process of planning to make a lace trimmed christening gown. A
first for me and I wondered if I could ask those of you who might have
done
something like this in the past for the benefit of your experience.
Just as a point of interest what type of lace did you choose to do,
Was there anything you wished you had done differently.
Obviously this is the sort of garment worn just a few times but has to be
kept
in storage for the greater part of its life (I already know about the acid
free paper), but is there anything else I should know about long term
storage.
Many thanks Sue T, Dorset UK
