    Made ourselves a Mei tei!

    It has a cordoury outer and straps and a scrummy minkee on the inside I put lots of padding in the waist band to accomodate my growing ds, no padding on the shoulder straps but they are nice and wide. Shoulder straps are extra long cos I like to tie the tibetan way.
    I'm quite pleased with how it turned out, wore Ds is it yesterday and he fell asleep in it so he likes it! My sewing machine was playing up during the whole process, dont think it knew what it it lol! It better get used to it cos I'm already thinking of making another in a different colour...
