The Gold Thread

After Charlotte was placed in our arms, AKA,  one of the happiest days of our lives, we stayed in the city of Nanchang where she was born,  for 4 more days doing paperwork and sightseeing and of course shopping. There was a dressmaker shop across from our hotel where you could pick the fabric and the next day you could pick up your outfit. All of the families that we traveled with ended up returning to this store multiple times to get one, then 4, then 8 plus 10 squeaky shoes, throw in some jade jewelery, and it just kept going. The name of the shop was Tiffany's, go figure.  My absolute favorite dress that we had made was the traditional Chinese dress in the gold fabric she is wearing in these pictures. Just beautiful!
