I would love to make some, the mother has gone through so much any thing to lighten her day Diamond

our sewing group make tiny quilts 12 to 18" for these tiny ones , we have just been ask for more,from out local hospital.I wpuld also be happy to make gowns too

From the needle of Anne has a set specially made for the loss of a baby.
In Germany "Die Hobbyschneiderin" is a big community and there is a special part whit instructions for sets. They make them for hospitals to give them to the parents who had this tragic loss so they can enrobe their babies. Here we call these babies "Sternenkinder" (starchildren) or "Schmetterlingskinder" (butterfly-children) but I did not found a word in english. To see the pics you register.
Greetings, Bettina

There must be quite a few"patterns of these little gowns out there, when my grandson was born at 18 weeks still born, the wonderful volunteers from the Adelaide women and childrens hospital supplied a beautiful gown and quilt to my daughter for him, and a lovely quilted and embroidered "Memory Box", despite our sorrow at the time, they provided a little ray of sunshine, at a very difficult time.

I found an Australian site with a pattern for premie gowns. Go down and click on Hospital baby gowns. There is also a link for knitted gowns.

This is a great idea if it is possible to digitize one. Sorry but I can't digitize. Our sewing group will be making the little quilts as one of our charity projects.

Just seen that the link did not work. The set "loss" is in the category "for children". There are beautiful samples of sets.
Greetings, Bettina

I don't think it makes sense digitising one.

1. The smallest size has an 8"x9" front part, which would require a large hoop; the medium and large size are of course bigger.
2. The Australian pattern requires lining the piece, so you could only stitch the side seams on the embroidery machine. They recommend stitching the seams flat - which would have to be done on a sewing machine. Stitching fabric and lining together (on the sewing machine) only takes one continuous seam.

Thank you for posting this. Also thanks to the cuties that supplied sites to check out. I was able to find what I needed. Shirley
