Mom's Wedding Dress

My mother was married younger and much shorter than any of her daughters. (We were all taller than she was before we finished high school.)  50 plus years later, her wedding dress was starting to diminish (I like that word better than "decay".) I saved the bodice - it was extremely beautiful, and in marvelous condition. The actual satin train was stained and blotchy, so I decided to make it in to little bits and pieces for her daughters, granddaughters, and now we have great-granddaughters. I think Mom would have loved the idea.
