It's lovely - what's a Wiccaning gown?? Looks kinda like a christening gown to me, is that right??

[StitchLuva]

that is a stunning dress! what yarn did you use and how long did it take you. i have always been afraid of projects like this because the baby might outgrow it before i finish...

http://www.angelfire.com/tx5/angelcrafts/patterns/christeninggown.html This is the pattern that I used and it was very easy to make. She has wonderful patterns on her site. It only took 1 and a part of a second skein of Bernat Baby Softee yarn. And I had it done in about 3 days minus finding the perfect embellishments LOL Thanks for all the compliments .. A Wiccaning gown is similar to a Christening gown but is used in a Wiccan/Pagan ceremony of welcoming a child into the parents pagan community, seeking the Lady's blessings and protection for the child and confirming the parents' chosen name for the child.

That is beautiful. The Wiccaning Ceremony sounds like a christening: Same concept, different deity. "Welcome, here's your name, grow up good and healthy"...

 

And of course, you LOOK SO CUTE in that outfit!
