<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Hey I like that safety pin idea. Tho I got my dress back in the 90s sometime and always kept the pins in. They seem to stay in there pretty good and aren't really all that sharp. My pins even stayed in while in storage for, wow, years since late 90's. I finally pulled the clothes out before christmas and having fun dressing Felicity up. She probably hasn't been in the same dress for more than a couple of days XD

Thanks -- good info! I will definitely be buying this dress for DD's birthday. Felicity looks so beautiful in that color -- it makes her skin look nice and rosy.

Felicity's pinner gown -- does it actually have tiny removable pins that hold the apron on? That's what it sounds like in the description -- not sure I like that idea since we play with our dolls (but I LOVE the dress).

AGOT stroller with baby -- anyone have this accessory? If so, what do you think of it? DD REALLY wants it, but it looks kind of chintzy to me (in the catalog).

Thanks!!

Felicity's pinner apron- yes, it has pins. However, I find that the top of my F apron is stiff enough to stand up without them (and I got it as a kid in the early 90s). So I never use the pins.

Thanks for your reply. The idea of loose pins concerned me -- mainly because we walk around barefoot all the time and also have 2 dogs and 5 cats (all indoor). I'd hate to have any of us stepping on tiny pins on the floor, which is undoubtedly where they would end up. I LOVE the dress, though, so I'm sure I will buy it -- I'll just take the pins out and put them away I guess. Thanks!

The little straight pins aren't sharp at all. But they're definately not something that a young girl could put in by herself, it took me several minutes to get mine in just right. They don't fall out either.
