Published July 18, 2012 | By Liane Wagner

Bernadette sent me her wedding gown to have a romper made for her first grandson as well as a kerchief for her daugther's coming wedding. Her gown had some beautiful older lace that had colored with age. We decided to use that on the faux vest of the romper.

She is about 11" or so tall. i really like making the angels. It is hard to find a consistent supplier of porcelain heads though so the heads can vary quite a bit.
