We are baptizing our 14 year old daughter this easter vigil.we are dressing her in the traditional white,poofy,midthigh length baptism dress with a matching bonnet,lace anklets and white mary janes.I sewed ruffles across the back of the white rubber pants she is wearing over her cloth diaper.i used regular white thresd and did 6 rows of ruffles from side seam to side seam.they will look very cute under her short dress!
When our daughter made her First Holy Communion at 14 in the class of 2nd graders,she had to wear rubberpants under her dress like the little girls do,so i sewed lace around lace around the waist and leg openings to make them cuter.
