[lace] The dress has finally been used!
Around a year ago I posted a picture of the baby christening dress I had made some years back, 1992 - 1997, designed by Veronica Sorensen and in her book Modern Lace Designs. The dress has languished in the drawer (wrapped in acid free tissue paper and unbleached muslin) all these years, occasionally coming out for a brief showing at a Lace Day. Today, Easter Sunday, April 8, 2012, the dress was finally used as it was intended. My granddaughter Amelia Caroline was baptized and she wore the dress. What a lovely 13 day old baby girl she is... I've posted 2 pictures of her wearing the lace dress on webshots. Pictures 2 and 3. http://community.webshots.com/album/579942410PmmurI Best Regards, Carol Melton Valley of the Sun Phoenix, AZ USA - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

RE: [lace] The dress has finally been used!
That certainly turned out to be a worthwhile effort - both making the dress and waiting for the baby! Both are beautiful. Wonderful to see such a lovely dress being used. A member of our Guild made a matinee jacket when her own children were teenagers already. When the jacket was finished she wrapped it and gave it to herself for Christmas!! Her children were not amused at all!! It gave the Guild members a good laugh though.

The dress and baby look beautiful. What pretty names the parents have given their daughter - most suitable for one who was to wear such an elaborate dress.

As someone who has an aversion to babies (you can't have an intelligent conversation with them and they just eat, sleep, cr*p and cry), I have to admit that the dress is really set off by having a baby's head on top of it. A lovely family heirloom for future generations. Great job. Jean in Poole, Dorset, UK - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
