Linscee 8/5/08Cute dress, great review as ever. Thanks.

Heatherrique 8/5/08Absolutely out-a-sight and dyn-a-mite! Gorgeous and eyecatching resuscitation of an oldie but goodie!
* * *
Cidell 8/5/08Adorable!
* * *
Karen8320 8/5/08It looks great and I think it really suits you. Even without a pocket I think it would still look good. I love your adventurous spirit in trying new things and updating them to suit your own style.
* * *
CrescentaLuna 8/5/08I love that you bucked the tide of advice and followed your instincts! 1 pocket = personality, baby. Good call (and cute pic)!
* * *
Meggie LuLu 8/5/08What a CUTE dress!!! I actually have this pattern. My grandma gave it to me. I can't wait to make it.
* * *
Tonya 8/5/08Very cute :) 1974 was a good year - I have a simplicity pattern from that year too that I love. Great job!
* * *
Karen6790 8/5/08Okay, I was one of the "no pocket" votes and I stand corrected. I admit it. It's too cute, and the pocket works. And yes, the PR member component is priceless.
* * *
Em's Summer 8/5/08I love this dress! You picked great fabrics. I think your version looks so much cuter than the one on the pattern envelope! Great job!
* * *
Natasha B 8/6/08Such a cute dress. The neckline detail and opening is really lovely. The one pocket ... very cute!
* * *
donna mel 8/6/08love your reviews!
* * *
cindy-lou 8/6/08Love this dress! Great vintage. The neckline is really super, and suits you so well. Another score!
* * *
cindyann 8/6/08Cute, cute dress. Retro, but with a modern twist.
* * *
ladybirdlove 8/6/08You rock! I didn't get a chance to vote, but I would have gone for the one-pocket--- super dress!
* * *
AnneM 8/6/08$5 a yard? !!! 5 hours? !!! Really cute dress. I confess I like it with no pockets best, but one pocket is just as cute in many ways (and still not mod maid). I'm surprised how well this style works for you; I would not have expected that from the pattern picture. You are better at visualizing the results than I am!

DorothyK 8/6/08Great dress. Looks adorable on you. I love the pocket. It makes the dress.
* * *
Tiner W 8/6/08Both chic and whimsical!
* * *
anncie1 8/6/08This dress is so adorable and no doubt filled with personality! I like the one pocket decision! Great Job!
* * *
Aunt Gail 8/8/08What a great find --wonderful looking dress. Great Pocket and another well written review by you! TY for all your effort, honesty and how-to-do tips.
* * *
phthooey 8/8/08Great! Love the contrast pocket, neck band, etc.
* * *
Soliel 8/18/08Very cute dress.
