These are for a friends son and nephew, They took some to a shop to get them embroidered but they ruined them(shop had to purchase new ones). They actually wrote the names on them for the baptism (they didn't think of asking me at the time) I had to wash and bleach the writing off. This is the end result.

these r just beautiful & so meaningful *

You did a wonderful job. I would never have guessed that something else was on them. How long are you sashes? Were these for infants or older person.

They are 150cm(60") long. They use them for baby baptism, then add to them as they go. (Holy Communion etc.)

I think that is soooo cool! I have made baptism bibs for our church and babtism burial shrouds for the hospital for preemies or infants that die in the hospital. I co teach our confirmation class and we are planning on making sashes with them.

They are beautiful and you did an excellant job of getting the names off, you can't tell they were redone. Outstanding! *4U

Amazing save on your part! Where are the designs from, they are simple but so elegant. Beautiful work :)

Not sure where I got the cross it was FSL but I removed all but the outline and centre. The hands are from Embroidery RN.

Thought the cross looked familiar - I have the FSL design. I love how you have used it.

These are beautiful!!

It looks lovely!

Great save and lovely work Cindy! *4U

Lovely; how nice that they will have this keepsake of a special time in the church.

Those are beautiful. You did a great job of getting the writing off.
