From Wedding Dress to Baptismal Gown



Twenty-five years ago, my sister made my wedding dress.  She has now made a beautiful baptismal gown for her granddaughter from it.  The original train was left in tact.

I think so too. I'm so glad she could re-use it.

Dymphna's favorite quotes


"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark
