Many of you are fascinated with the amount of angel gowns we create from each dress, that number varies, due to size of dress, seams and even where the beadwork is. On average we create about 10 angel gowns from each wedding dress, some we make more, and quite a few older fragile dresses we can only create one.
Want more numbers??? Do you count your steps? Do you like even numbers more than odd? I thought, for fun, I would share about Sew Sweet Angel Gowns by the numbers.
531-number of wedding dresses we have received
489-angel gowns sewn together
262-angel gowns distributed
85-members on our volunteer email list
40-average number of volunteers at community sew day
32-inches of ribbon to close back of angel gown
21 months since our first Facebook post
12 pair if Gingher scissors we own
2-hours it takes to sew together first dress
0.68 kilograms- the weight of angel that will fit micro gown
Thank you to all the donors, if you donated your wedding gown, time and talent, shopped off our Amazon wish list, or contributed financially, we are truly grateful for all of you. As always if you are aware of a hospital, institution or family in need of an Angel gown, please have them reach out to us.
We continue to pray for these grieving families
Much Love,
Debbie and the Sew Sweet Crew
