Christening gown, hat and booties...crocheted in '96...worn by all three of my boys.
Close up of buttons and hat...I couldn't find buttons I liked so I bought the beads in the right color and made these buttons.
Close up of the front of the bodice and the booties.
I hope I get to use this one more time.

Beautiful work, Kristin! So wonderful to have something handmade with so much love, shared by all your boys.
Thanks for stopping by my blog - I left a comment there about the washing machine - but basically, you just chuck the veggies in on cold and run the cycle. It worked great!
You are one talented lady.

Absolutely beautiful! As a fellow crocheter, I can truly appreciate all of the hard work and love that went into those garments. I'm soooooooooo glad you had the opportunity to use them, more than once, and with hopes to use them again.
