Did this in for my youngest grandaughter. It's all heirloom techniques and embroidery combined in one project. I also crocheted the blanket in the background. I haven't seen her in it, yet but am hoping to soon.

SO pretty - I love heirloom stitches, and saw a demonstration by a certified Martha Pullen instructor last weekend. I am ready to give it a try.

This is absolutely wonderful! I'd have liked to make one for my granddaughters, but we already have a family christening gown, it goes back over 100 years so of course they'll be using that. Love and flowers for all from Dianne x x x

Wow, this will be a family heirloom for ages! I still have the christening gown my grandma gave to my mother when I was born. I think your daughter will be very proud of you.

Beautiful! And the best thing is that it's one of a kind. Nobody will have one exactly like it!
