Tonight was a sewing night for me. John and the boys are at his parents’ house and I am at home alone with just me and my sewing machine. Well, I’ve also got my dog and 2 kitties here keeping me company. So, let’s get to the point of this blog post, shall we? I have a new fabric that I found for my slings! I really love the way it looks on the Natural Linen. If I had any Ginger Linen left, I...

This is one of the core designs I plan to use for future slings. The stitching looks like a vine with leaves. I used this on the top of the pocket and on the sides and bottom of the sling. I placed the pocket off from the center on the tail. I stuck with the accordion fold for the shoulder. And, the length is around 75 inches; a medium size.
This sling is made from a Pistachio color pure softened linen with...
