I love how you project reality. The idea of the journal is fabulous. I'm sure you'll get there and I reckon you've inspired at least half of us to perhaps let this enter our minds for our future grandbabies. Right now I wouldn't attempt it but just maybe.... thank you for sharing.

I'm a huge fan of Paula Vaughan stitching and enjoyed seeing all of yours. Thanks for sharing your new stitching projects, I'm happy for you to be stitching again. I know it's a big project but the new Baptismal Gown will be a family treasure and something to be used for generations to come. You are making it with love !! The drawstring bag is a wonderful idea and a special addition to the gown. In closing, you look beautiful and shine from the inside and out. Happy Stitching and Sewing !

Paula Vaughn has a special place in my heart as she is the designer my mother and I collected when I first learned to cross stitch back in the 80s, I still have the patterns but only one is finished. Your baptismal gown is going to be a treasure. Good luck to you in creating it. You will do it, I have no doubt. Thank you for sharing. Have a beautiful day.

Our family has a "family" baptismal gown as well, but it is a simple crocheted thing with a plain muslin underslip and, as far as I know, no one knows who made it originally. My granddaughter was baptized in it this past August though. Yours is going to be an incredible work of art and even your "trial" pieces will be priceless treasures. ~Robin~ TheCrankyCrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16314851714923955216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32738674.post-49264611099170525712024-03-02T08:58:50.904-05:002024-03-02T08:58:50.904-05:00Thank you for sharing this gorgeous lettering, Von...Thank you for sharing this gorgeous lettering, Vonna!
