Valerie Elberson sent her wedding dress to have a baptism gown made for her daughter. Valerie's dress had volumes of ruffled organza so we decided to mimic some of the volume while keeping the gown comfortable for an infant to wear. We also made a matching headband.

Sara Respondek sent her wedding dress to have us make a christening gown, romper and booties for grandchildren. The first to wear an outfit would be a new grandson.
The wedding dress was made of a slinking fabric that gave us a bit of a challenge because it kept slipping and sliding :). We tried to keep the original embroidery work from the train of the WD on the front of the girl's gown. We used pin pleats and buttons on the bodice of the romper and gave it a faux belt.
Rebekah Keilholtz sent three shirts to have a memory bear made for Madi because "Dad passed away from Alz. & she is getting married in a couple of months. He passed away 3 months before the wedding". We used a little something from each garment and hope this little bear brings comfort and good memories.

Demetra Gravell sent her late mother's raccoon fur coat to have us make as many memory bears from it as we could for her and all the grandchildren. We were able to get a total of four fur bears and two fabric bears by using the lining fabrics for bears. We also used the lining fabrics for paw pads, ear pads and scarves.
