How did you make your own wrap,sling, or mei tai
post #2 of 5
Here are the different resources I used when trying to find out how to make a sling. The actual one I ended up using is: http://www.slingmemommy.com/#_instructions_for_making
http://www.mayawrap.com/n_sewSling.php
http://www.thebabywearer.com/lists/Sewing.htm
http://slingrings.com/patterns.php

These are all for ring slings, I think. I haven't tried making anything else yet. HTH!!!

some great instructions on sleepingbaby.net and mamatoto.org

also, check out the DIY forum over at thebabywearer.com - there are lots of folks who do picture tutorials of how they made their carriers

I just copied what I saw and did what I thought would work.

Did anyone mention wearyourbaby.com there may be some useful infor there too.

I have made ring slings, wraps, mei tais, and pouches. I have found it to be some trial and error too.

BTW, I am not a very experienced sewer at all but found all of these do-able.

What are you wanting to make?

I liked the pattern in

Beths mei tai. <-- that was supposed to be a link. But, I messed it up.

But, there are several patterns to choose from.
