This weekend was my boyfriend’s big birthday and I wanted to make him something really special. We had a pretty magical moment involving a 40′ tall rocket at Burning Man, so rockets are a significant motif in our relationship.

white striped sundress
I made this dress a few months ago but am just getting around to posting, now that it’s too chilly to actually wear the thing… The fabric is from an awesome vintage sheet that I had sitting around my collection for about a year, and I based the pattern on a dress my mom made me many years back.
I love the fabric because it’s cool and breezy, but not so thin that it’s transparent. The fit is fabulous and I don’t feel the need to wear a bra with it (cha ching!)
FUNGITRON
So I came up with this idea on the looong drive back from Burning Man (2,500 miles=lots of time to think). Fungitron debuted at Halloween but its real venue is Burning Man, with a planned appearance at Mardi Gras along the way.
These Smurfs and I danced in the street to the Fraggle Rock theme song.
