We took our wares to the streets today, ended up with some good barter action. It was a nice way to spend a Sunday morning.
I like events that we can ride to. We ended up bartering Skyler some utility belts for a Greg Degouvia-built bike trailer, so the pack up and ride home was easier.
I am making cargo jeans now where I piece in new fronts using cotton twill from old coveralls. I made a smaller size, and Mona modeled them for me.
We needed a larger bike seat for our kiddo trailer and found one yesterday at an estate sale. Erika made a new cover for it and made it fit in the trailer.
Seamonster took the stage name Madame Titty Bop for the event. Her top – called ‘The Magic Twins’ – and lacquered citrus slice necklace were made by Goat.

‘Let’s see, you got an owl, a ceramic horse, a reel to reel tape, some anatomy flash cards, and a rock – that will be $2’.
Michelle Wurlitzer, our most loyal customer. She has chosen a yellow theme for her bike tour, just found a dress to match the panniers that we made for her, and bought herself some yellow utility belts.
