Another sling thing


We bought a used Ergo babycarrier last week, thanks to our friend Michele in the 'burbs who did the pick-up! This carrier can be used for an infant, but only if you buy the $25 insert. Highway robbery, I tell you. Here's my homemade version. I sewed fluffy upholstery cording to two layers of cotton batting, then covered the whole thing in a cotton case and quilted around it before closing it with some seam binding. While the cost was under $10, the time & travel involved were not trivial. Still, I find it satisfying to try and replicate something oneself.
