Sewing Question (kind of)

I want to get part of the bottom of my wedding dress made into a blanket for the baby. Does anyone know where I could get this done or know someone who has sewing/craft experience to do this? Thanks in advance!

Re: Sewing Question (kind of)

  • if you just want a simple blanket made w/your dress and no other fabrics/embellishments then i would imagine that any tailor shop would be able to do that for you? otherwise i would just look up seamstress in the phonebook?
  • Becky Fowler can.
  • I have never heard of this before, and I absoutely LOVE this idea. ?I have been going back and forth about what I should do with my wedding dress... my Gma wants me to box it so my possible future daughter can wear it... i want to do a TTD photo session in it... FI wants me to sell it... LOL...

    THIS is what I am going to do. ?Please let me know how it goes, if you find someone, what its like... this is the coolest idea ever. ?I love it!!!!!!?

  • I LOVE this idea. I'd try Becky Fowler, but any decent seamstress should be able to pull this off. I'd check with your local tailor.

  • Yes, I've done with in my first wedding dress. I had a detachable train and had it made into a Baptismal gown for both of my kids. It is now hanging in a display box with their shoes and baptismal certificates and pictures from the day.

     I've known Becky for over 20+ years and would highly recommend her!

  • Thanks, y'all! LadyBird, I'll definitely post some pics after I get it done so you can see it. I can't take credit - my mom came up with the idea!
