Making your own baby wrap is as easy as 1, 2, 3!

  1. First pick out your fabric. My favorites are cotton crinkle type gauzes, batiks, or any light weight cotton that has no right or wrong side. You will need about 5 yards, you can get away with a little less but, I find that 5 yards is perfect for both dad and mom. You can often find fabric on sale or even use a coupon.
  2. Cut your fabric in half lengthwise, you could even make a start at one end and rip it (this method may not be as effective on synthetic materials). You should now have two pieces of fabric 5 yards long.
  3. With a serger or sewing machine add a hem(no larger than 1/2") to all four sides of your wrap. This will give it a very attractive finished edge.

You are finished!

Enjoy wearing your baby anywhere and everywhere!
