Teddy now has a little brother, George, so he needed a christening gown as well.

The center front embroidery was digitized from a vintage heavily embroidered handkerchief, and I added the Trinity Cross embroidery in the center.

Bottom lace fancy band consisted of many rows of lace and insertion with silk ribbon.
