an heirloom for baby

When Maddie was born, Nana knit her a lovely christening gown, which she wore at her dedication at church.  I had recently pulled it out along with the other baby items to have it ready for our new little girlie's dedication to come.  BUT, I didn't realize that Nana was crocheting me another one! 
 Isn't it lovely?!  I think my favorite part is the 'pineapples' on the end. 
An adorable bonnet to match. The work is so intricate.
 Nana, thank you for another special heirloom!
 And, of course, I just had to reminisce and include Miss Maddie six years ago in her lovely gown and bonnet made by Nana.   
(She was such a cute, pudgy little thing with lovely, dark blue eyes.)
