I know it's hard to tell where the shirt ends and the wrap begins. Sorry about the black shirt... and the myspace-ish mirror pic.

Wear your baby!
So, I love to wear Caroline in a sling. I have several... a Peanut Shell pouch, a borrowed Hotsling pouch, and a Maya Wrap ring sling. I really like all of them but they all are one-shoulder carriers. Last week I decided I'd make my own wrap-style sling like the Moby Wrap, but for much less than they sell them online. I went to the fabric store and got some stretch cotton Jersey fabric (5.5 yards of 60 inch fabric) and cut it down into 3 strips and now have 3 wraps! It took me a while to figure out how to put it on correctly and how to get Caroline situated in it. I finally got it right today. I must say, I much prefer the comfort of the wrap to any of my one-shouldered slings. It's pretty much awesome.

That's awesome... now that you know how to do it, how long do you say it takes to put it on and get her comfy?
I might have to see about making one for myself... I have a hotslings wrap that I LOVE but like you said, it is only over one shoulder so even though I can do stuff while wearing it, it limits what I can do.
