It took just over four balls of thread, and six long months. I started when I was about 6 months pregnant, and finished it an hour before the blessing. I had all the crocheting done the night before, but I finished sewing the bows on at 11:40. Church started at 12:30, so it was just by the skin of my teeth!
This is the start of the fourth ball. Not even close to done.
A beautiful baby in her first white dress. 
I love this little face!
I thought the finish work on the last row was a little unspectacular, especially since that one row took FOUR hours to complete. Most of the rows took about an hour on average. I haven't counted the rows on the dress, but I'm sure it's more than 100.
I didn't make these, but I was so excited to find crocheted booties!! I love them.
The blessing was wonderful. Molly was blessed by her daddy, and it was beautiful! We had a great day with our family and friends in honor of this special and important occasion. We love our Molly Grace!!

Oops. Missed that you didn't make the booties, but they sure match nicely!
That is absolutely beautiful. Great Job! And Molly is super cute. Congrats on the blessing.
