I got word that my pictures weren't going through so it discouraged me from recording more of my sewing adventures. Ill try to post a few pictures now and see what happens. This dress was such a tender experience. I was asked to create a tiny gown for a little baby girl out of her mamas wedding gown.

A donation of two more gowns- one black- one black and white
I didnt know how to use these gorgeous gowns!! Often times the scale of the dresses are only for a grown person, not so much for a tiny tiny person. I ended up using the black beading on the dress on the right for tiny vests. They were beautifully beaded and worked up nicely for the vests, and the white fabric from the gown on the left was used for the body of the tiny gowns.
Angel Gowns for Dignity
When I was first starting this project, I was contacting different organizations to see if I could sew for them. I contacted Angel Gowns for Dignity and was contacted by Jen. We eventually met up in American Fork and she gave me two wedding gowns to work with. I actually had a stash of tiny gowns to give to someone, so I gave a few of my finished gowns to Jen that day. The first wedding dress was made from a knit fabric and I wondered if I could work with it, The sencond dress had some beautiful window type applique cut outs in the skirt. They were both awesome and beautiful.
