SwellyBelly?

[Jojo F.]

Some how I came across this and think it's a pretty cool idea for pregnancy. Anyone have/had one of these?

I'd really like to have one but not for $30. It looks wicked easy to sew. Stretchy fabric and thread right? Any thoughts about how to sew it?

I made three of those but in really neutral colors: white, black, and brown and I use them everyday! I just used a soft tricot/thick t-shirt fabric that I got at Jo-Ann's and they practically made themselves. If you want me to walk you through it just PM me...

when i was preg i bought a tube top and used that it worked great

I guess my only question is what type of thread to use. I have never sewn with stretchy fabric before.

In my stash of old clothes I found a couple stretchy tanks that I can cutt the top off and then sew up the edge.
