I was reading through the BBC this morning and found this in an artical about the upcoming birth of William and Kate's little one.
The christening robe will be a replica of one that has been used since 1841.... The robe was made for the christening of Queen Victoria's eldest daughter. Made of fine *Honiton lace lined with white satin,* it has subsequently been used for generations of Royal christenings. The current Queen wore it, her children all wore it and so have all but one of her grandchildren - including Princes William and Harry. In 2008, the Earl and Countess of Wessex's son wore a replica robe designed to preserve the original. Love life and lace on! RObin -- Never, ever, let anyone tell you what you can and can't do. Prove the cynics wrong. Pity them for they have no imagination. The sky's the limit. *Your* sky. *Your *limit. Now, let's dance. *~Tom Hiddleston* - To unsubscribe send email to [email protected] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [email protected]. For help, write to [email protected].
