  That's ours. We got the pattern off the Yahoo T@B group and my wife made them. Very nice to have. You can have some privacy and shade while keeping the windows open to capture a breeze. I forget who made them first.

  That looks like the Spoonflower fabric that is designed by a T@B owner.

  Interesting camo design - goes well with the Outback theme I think.  Made by Chris K and his wife Kathy.  They work great!  Easy on/off and you can fully close the window without needing to remove them.

  Where can I see details on this? Love to make them for our T@B. Did "Chris K and his wife Kathy" post instructions somewhere?

  I got the pattern for these off the Yahoo T@B forum. Someone generously posted detailed directions. I made my reversible with classic stripes on one side and girly flowers on the other for when I am "glamping" with Sisters On The Fly. They are held on with 1" elastic and Velcro.  Took me about an hour per panel. I used outdoor fabric from JoAnn (use those 40%coupons!) and UV thread that supposedly lasts longer in the sun.

  If one of you guys could use a new discussion with the dimensions and directions to make these window shades, Mike, PXLated or I will make sure it is moved to where it is archived here for others to use. Thanks if you don't mind doing this.

  Verna, the 3 page direction document is by Sharon Sigmon. It is posted on Yahoo as well as on the Facebook group called T@B Camping Trailers. I tried posting the FB link but it's being non-cooperative tonight. I'll try getting the Yahoo link.   Update: I think this link will work......

  FWIW, those two links failed (for me anyway). Took me to list of awning ads on a Time Warner page??

  Yes, that is great. I'm not good with PDF files, PXLated. Could you copy that file to the post I made in the videos and resource category? Just edit my post and add it, if you can. Thanks!

  Think my problem is the Linux OS I'm using. I'll go back to Windows (ugg) and do those links again. Thanks to all who've searched it out.

  did you try the pdf download above in this thread by SweetlyHome?  The links don't work for me on a Mac but the pdf downloaded with no problems.  I know the later Mac OS is linux based so I would think you would have a relatively good shot downloading with no problems.

  BBchBum - Macs are Unix based but not the Linux variant. BSD with a Mach kernal as I recall. And a totally different programming base - ObjectiveC and Swift

  The pattern for the window awnings was initially put together by Ella Brown and Sharon Sigmon, I believe.  Ella and her husband now travel in a Airstream Bambi.  The pattern can be found on Yahoo, as well as the Facebook pages.  Warning:  They can be quite addictive : ) I don't sew, but have managed to make 4 sets.  Yikes!
