Weddings

When my daughter married I made her a ring bearer pillow out of my wedding dress train. She loved it, and it made sense to use my gown for a special purpose.

Last month a friend asked me to make a pillow for her daughter' s wedding.She was fortunate to have pieces of the wedding attire of her grandmother, mother and her own gown. I had her cut the pieces I would use to make the pillow. Another friend washed the lace we had cut from the three fabrics. Last week I finished the pillow.
