    About 7-10 days from order to receipt, in my case. Looking forward to the results.

    Thumbs up Finished!

    My fabric got here last Wednesday! I made the sling the very next day, but didn't have time to upload pictures. I pleated the shoulder to the yellow stripe.

    Here they are. The newborn carry is modeled by my daughter's teddy bear.


    And here's the hip carry with my daughter.


    And here it is empty being used as a sash.

    Looking at the sling's placement, over the right shoulder, I am reminded of why the woman's plaid is so frequently expected to be on the right, not the left.

    While I have read discussions of it it encumbering the right arm, having a baby on the left, supported by a sling (or plaid) actually frees the right arm to go on stirring the porridge. Thank you for the perfect example of that!
