This weekend...

Was brought to us by the letter P...

P is for Playfort that was free on Craigslist...and is now re-assembled in our back yard...


P is for Pulley...set up by Sabine and Bret...


and P is for Panniers...sewn by Carolyn for the Yuba Mundo bike (note the black ninja kitty on the bike)...


I found the fabric at SCRAP (I think it was $6 -- and I have some left over -- it is a thick, lined material...formerly curtains), the straps were left over from a sewing project I did for our friend Bud back in Wyoming. I did have to by $6 worth of "D" rings once I finalized my design (I had a bunch, but used them all...). Much less expensive than Yuba's (albeit, nice) ones at $119 each.

Do the girls have their legs in the panniers? Very stylin! If you sent a pic in to the bike manufacturer, you might have a job!!

They do have their legs in (I have mixed feelings about it -- not sure which is safer -- in or out...). I might just send them a photo...though with the amount of time it took to make these, I'd probably lose money (though hopefully the subsequent ones would go more quickly!).
