Orange belt
13 August 2009
I don't own a bicycle, but if I was going to purchase one this would definitely be an option. It comes in other colors for those those of you who think orange is too bold and can be yours for $235 (incl. shipping). The basket liner leaves something to be desired but I'm sure that can be changed. And as you can see from the big old watermark splashed over the picture it's from bikebuyers.com.

Fabric is Anna Griffin's LanternsI have a cheapie ironing board from Wal Mart and the cover it came with is craptastic. Every time I iron something large, like a piece of fabric, the ironing board cover and padding shifts, driving me insane and making ironing even more of a pain in the butt than it already is. A new ironing board cover was on my list of things to do and I decided to just tackle it.
For the most part I followed this tutorial. Also see this tutorial.
My only suggestion would be to use elastic drawstring (which I found at JoAnn's) instead of twine.
If you need new padding as well, I zig-zagged a layer of cotton batting to a layer of insul-bright. I actually had to stitch it to the underside of the cover to get it to stay in place. Or a better/easier alternative is to buy one for $12 from CityChicCountryMouse on Etsy.
