New and Improved

Remember that mei tai carrier I posted a few weeks ago? Well, from that, I had a friend ask me to make her one. But we redesigned it and I changed a TON about how I was making them and made her one I was SO excited about. From that, another friend decided to have me make her one, which she is loving with her newborn. Because I didn't really like my first one now, I decided to make ME another one. So, I've now made 3 in this new pattern and LOVE it. It is getting easier to do each time and I love how comfortable and cute they are.

This is the first one I made with the new design. I loved the fabric she chose.

Thanks Paisley (and Jill) for modeling! I love how it fits so well.

Here's the second one with its owner, baby Bryce (and Emily). She likes the behind the back tying better than under the legs with him so small.This is my latest that I made for me (though I'm going to post it for sale on etsy).

I love how versatile the styles can be, because you can choose any fabric you want! I went to Joann's and found fabric after fabric that I would LOVE to make these in!

Anyway, I love making these. I could make one every day and love it. At least for now.

I am really excited that my etsy website is starting to have business. I have had orders from 3 people in the last 3 weeks that ordered off my site (rather than talking to me first and me posting a listing for them). Each order was for something different, like for a block set (yeah!), a baby quilt, and a hooded towel. I even sold that first carrier I made (from the first design) on Saturday, much to my surprise. It's fun to hear back from these people and to know they love what I've made.
