Tuesday Project Roundup: In Which My Inner Hippy Is Victorious

Introducing the hippy dress to rule all hippy dresses:
(Yes, Toby has his space heater out already.)

Pattern: Hippy dress from France, modified a lot--I took about seven inches of fullness out of the back and adjusted the sleeve pieces in order to raise the neckline.

Fabric: Liberty of London "My Little Star"

Verdict: Awesome. I haven't been worn stars and comets on my clothing since a Rainbow Brite t-shirt in 1985.

Hey I just realized you've already got the link in there to an earlier post with a nice shot of the fabric - sorry!

That is a pretty fantastic print, on a fully fantastic dress! Nurture the inner hippy :)
