1. choose your print and purchase 1 yard from your favorite fabric store/website- this can be any weight cotton- most people choose quilter/designer cottons- please check the links page for great places to buy prints. If you have specific layout requirements, this may require a bigger piece of fabric. Please be aware of that before ordering your print.

 

2. Decide what size carrier you need- look at the "Carrier Info" link in the navigation bar to the left to get more info on sizing.  

 

3.  Choose your strap color. Please refer to the pop up color chart on the custom slot catalog listing for swatches of all the colors- instock and special order.

 

4. Tell me about any special instructions, such as layout of your print(s), or contrasting thread, or any other pertinent info in the 'special insturctions' box on the custom listing.

 

5. You need to send 1 yard of your chosen cotton print to me right away after purchasing a custom slot.  I need it within a week of purchase, so this means you should plan to mail it to me within a couple of days of said purchase.  Please dont depend on a fabric vendor to ship quickly- they usually dont.  (2 weeks for raffle winner)

 

*using a wrap piece in place of a cotton print is not a wrap conversion- you will need a minimum of 2 meters of a wrap to do body panels, hood, and headrests.  

 

For Kindercarry, I require wraps that measure at the very minumum 4.5m, but preferable 5+m.  Kinderpacks can use as short as a 3.5m wrap. Be advised that if you choose a wrap on the shorter end of the size spectrum, it may be possible to have to do the lining with a coordinating solid cotton- I can usually provide something suitable.  If you choose, you may also send another piece or wrap/fabric to use as the lining. 

 

Didymos-must be a sz 7 for a Kindercarry, sz 5 for a Kinderpack- stripes and jaquards are the best Didy choices for conversions

         *please no indios, ninos, waves, or silks

 

Hoppediz- great wraps for conversions

 

Lana- the best choice for conversions

 

BBslen, Girasols, and other GSWs- these are acceptable wraps for conversions

 

Zara/Ellevill- not acceptable

 

**If you are in doubt about your wrap choice, please contact me via the contact form and we can discuss it.

 

1. choose your wrap

 

2. choose your size

 

3. Decide if you want a different lining for your carrier.   This will be necessary if you have a wrap that is on the shorter end of my length requirements.

 

4. Tell me about any special instructions, such as layout of your wrap, or contrasting thread, or any other pertinent info.  I will do my best to fulfill your wishes.

 

5. You need to send your chosen wrap to me right away after purchasing a custom slot.  I need it within a week of purchase, so this means you should plan to mail it to me within a couple of days of said purchase.  Please dont depend on a vendor to ship quickly- they usually dont.  If you are doing a lining, please send a 1 yd piece of your other wrap/silk, or let me know that you want a coordinating solid cotton.  I cannot guarantee that I have the color you are wanting.   I will provide my shipping address soon after I receive your order.
