That is a great dress! I actually have fabric like that--two sarongs I bought in Sri Lanka. I've been thinking about making one into a dress (it's quite a lot of fabric). My favorite (which is not too different from punky's fabric) was purchased at Barefoot (barefootceylon.com) perhaps they do mail order.
meghan, thanks for the tip! the fabric at barefoot ceylon is amazing! i will ask them if they do mail order. i am already imagining bedspreads and tablecloths...
