Kathy,
I loved that story. I think it's fitting you winning the second gown. DD will be thrilled to wear the next generation gown. Have you ever seen the Hallmark movie the Wedding Dress? If not, try to rent a copy and you'll know what I'm talking about. A very special dress affects several lives in this movie.
I couldn't wear my grandmother's gown because she was one of those beauty queen types with a WOW figure from the 1940's. However, it was passed down to me and maybe young DD will be able to wear it someday.
I can't wait to see your new creations. It's almost like waiting for the next Harry Potter book to come out.
