Your dress is wonderful. I love the way you styled everything. Thanks for all the great photos! The vintage buttons are perfect with your beautiful fabric. I'm looking forward to seeing more TGTU fabric in your futute projects :-)

Beautiful dress - and perfect sunny color for you! Way to be fearless with the precious fabric. I have a piece of TGTU linen/rayon & am not sure what I'm waiting for! Thanks for the turned facing reminder, too - I had seen the Margaret dress posting a while ago. Well done!!

Very cute dress and I think your pockets and underlining looks 'planned'. Well done!

Very, very pretty, and I appreciate all the details of construction that you shared, both here and on your blog, including dying the underlining with tumeric. I love it!
