For Christmas we had decided to go away to Bright which is in North East Victoria. We had also decided that with all of the stuff we had to fit into the car (golf clubs, guitars, kids toys etc) that the pram just wasnt going to fit. So I made the decision to make myself up a Mei Tai sling.
There are a bunch of tutorials online so I didnt use just one of them, but I did stick with the instructions for the man-tai very loosely when putting it together.
I used some white duck cloth... I know what you are thinking, white?!?! are you crazy?? but I didnt want A black one and white was the only neutral colour option left.
I also used some of some quilters cotton that I had laying around for the outside panel to make it pretty.
The sling is being modeled by my very talented Sister In Law Heather who loved getting to wear Olly to the pub and back. :-)
Olly really liked it too :-) He also really liked that iceblock. His first one ever... he was slightly confused by the cold at first, but because it was so hot he eventually figured out why we were giving it to him!!
and yummed it all up :-D

Looks like you had fun & the sling looks great. I only used a Baby Bjorn for my 4th, they weren't around when i had my first, then we had twins, so wasn't about to sling two at once!! Happy days, love Posie
