Amy and I made this rocket for our friends’ sons who share a bunk-bed. There is a long curtain with a door that covers the long open side of the lower bunk, and a cockpit control panel that goes behind the pillow inside the lower bunk.

Amy’s a pro, but this was my first sewing project. And it was a great way to learn with lots of different fabrics and stitches, and the opportunity to make lots of cool sci-fi stuff.

Another old project I originally posted to Flickr in 2011, but am archiving here too.
