Project Complete!
A friend had recently told me to invest in a sling on top of getting the Ergo, for quick trips into the store or for moments when putting the Ergo on was too much. So of course needing something to occupy my brain last weekend, I elected to make the said sling.
Mike and I spent at least an hour in the fabric store debating different fabrics when all of the sudden we spotted exactly what we wanted. What we walked out with is pure bliss! The sling is reversible with a velvety corduroy tan on one side and a dragonfly/bamboo serene scene on the other side. It was so easy to make!! Check it out.
So now that we have another weekend to keep our minds busy, I'm gonna have to find another project to keep my mind from swirling away in all things referral. Any ideas????
Is it Monday yet??

Hey, Kayce!
I'm Chan's friend. She asked me to check-in on your blog now and then. I hope you get your referral this week!!!
As a BTDT, I suggest making some (LOTS) changing pads you can fold into your purse, backpack, or diaper bag. I also used them at my folks' and to toss on the bed or floor. They don't have to be fancy. I used flannel on one side and a cotton blend (like your bamboo fabric) on the other. No batting needed. Just make rectangles. I suggest adding a row of top-stitching to make them sturdy. Make sure to make them long enough!!! I suggest 30-36 inches. You can even add ribbons at one end so you can roll them up and tie them. TAKE SOME TO CHINA. There are NO changing tables or counters. You WILL be changing diapers on the floor (YUCK!).
Hope your weekend flies by!

Oh my goodness I did the same thing, except in addition the ergo I made a ring sling. Love your fabric choice. Can't wait to see what happens next week!

Beautiful fabric. I love it.
Hope you hear something early next week.
Very cute but I have to toss my support in for the ERGO. That thing got us through China and was the most amazing bonding tool. I loved it so make sure you get one before getting Jen. Did you see on RQ that the 29th being in is now an R3!!! wow!!!! Im getting nervous!!

LOVE the sling!!! I'm not as crafty and had to buy mine, but I used it everyday when in China and still use it now at home.
Hoping for Monday!!
