This year I’ve been working on so many custom orders!
Local burner couple extraordinaire, Don and Kelly work and play together, and from what I can tell, always look awesome.
Normally I would crop these to make them look like they’re flying through space, but I love the shadows too much. So the illusion is spoiled!
I really have the greatest customers!
I have always loved stripes, and although I obviously love colors, sometimes you just can’t beat a good black and white combo.
Each year this design is my #1 seller for Burning Man costumes. The pattern is my own design, for comfortable fit and stripe convergence.
These leggings are made out of slinky lycra that stretches 175% its original size! So they are equally perfect for dancing and gorging at a feast. You can get them in my Etsy shop now!
I made these pants for Burning Man 2013, but they were also great for New Year’s Eve.
The metallic rainbow fabric is just that, found in the clearance section at Joann, back in 2010. The teal waistband is a wonderful modal jersey that is now all gone from my fabric cabinet (but I also have two shirts and a turban from it).
I’d been planning on making balloon shorts out of this awesome metallic rainbow stripe, but felt that night-appropriate pants would be more spectacular. My #1 dream would have been to line the shorts with hot pink silk charmeuse to feel it sliding against my skin with every little step, but at night I tend to wear plain leggings underneath the genie pants for warmth, and so I simply used a striped cotton that was taking up space in my fabric annex (cardboard box under my desk).
I’ve been stash busting for a few months now, and I’m gaining a lot of momentum. And free space! Free space in my sewing cabinet, but not in my closet…
