My WIP Wednesday

I have seen quite a few linky parties to show your WIP (work in process) but I just can't seem to get into the linky scene. But I will show you my progress with the christening dress.

I have always used Aunt Lydia's crochet cotton, but Wal-Mart does not carry it anymore! So, this is Red Heart Classic cotton. It's OK but I prefer Aunt Lydia's.

Oh my goodness, I am so in awe of you. I am still on the basic little scarves and potholders level of crocheting. I hope to get to doilies someday. I can't imagine I'll ever be as good as you! You are doing a wonderful job. I would love to see a picture of the baby wearing it!
