No-Sew Wrap or Pouch?

[Vipers_Princess]

Is there such a thing? If so, with simple instructions? I tried a no-sew sling, but it called for a ton of fleece and ended up being far too bulky when tied and too heavy on my shoulder...

look at the links on the left and also the "make" pulldown menu on top

thank you. we're going house shopping this weekend {just found out that we have way more in VA home loan bennies than we thought!} and might be taking Em with us to a funeral on Monday. I'll stop by JoAnn's on Saturday on the way across the state and see what I can dig up.

What is the Tibetan wrap? I clicked on the link on the woven no sew and it came up 'no page to display'

That's the Tibetan.

Not sure about the link that didn't work. :shrug I think the key to any no-sew is finding fabric that has either 2 selvages, or that won't ravel when you cut it. I'm not even sure there is a woven fabric that wouldn't ravel... :think

If you haven't already done this... look at the "start" pull-down menu. It it basically a directory of all different types of carries, categorized in different ways. :tu My "no-sew" wraps are no sew simply b/c I didn't take the time to sew them. :O The cut edge is not very asthetic, but you can't even see it once ds is wrapped up in it. :shrug I keep meaning to do the rubber bands trick on the ends to make them look a little better. (you fold the wrap lengthwise until it is narrow, then put a strong rubber band VERY tightly around the rough ends... as many times as you can wrap it. Then you just flip the end right-side out so it looks more finished.) \

Good luck on the house shopping. :) (I wish it were me! LOL dreaming of a one-level with a *real* yard :mrgreen )
