The other morning I was watching one of those HDTV crafty shows (I was trying to wake up... as these two boys think Mama sleeping past 6:30 in the morning is the funniest thing since Sponge Bob). The hostess made a baby sling... and it was so super easy! It was one of those simple over the shoulder pouch-like ones. There may be other styles out there, and I'll investigate them and post, but for now, let's start easy. If you can use a sewing machine, you can do this! Just think of all the pretty slings of various patterns and colors you could make! The rings can be found at a sewing shop or online.

I think my boys may be too big for a sling now... but I want to make one! ;)
