Got one for my sister. I bet she'll use it a lot when she's running around with an infant and a 2 year old. wish I had one when kiersten was a baby....I never did find one I liked.

Hi There!

I gave my sister the sling today as part of her present at the baby shower...she loves it! Her friend wants one now too so I sent her the web address.

Thanks!

Kathy

Dang, where were these when I had the kids? I could have side carried the twins with two of these!

Hey, awesome! Hope everything is going well -- has to be a lot less stress than the overhead/maintenance of a brick and mortar store, no?

Medea, I have a mom of brand new twins who is about to test them for me for carrying twins. I'm interested to see what she thinks.

Prescott, yes, much less stressful! Also not my sole source of income, which helps.

I see you must not be running your shop anymore, but this sling is awesome!!! When or if I have another, I definetly want one!!

Did you help make it? How cool!!! Smile Smile

Anyhow, hope all is well and glad you were able to still be in business. I hear online businesses are the way to go. My asshole ex has an online business and is doing very well.

Thanks Very Happy I am not the owner of Mothersville aymore, but the SlingSet is my design. I sourced the fabric (which is very specific to this design) and came up with the components and how they would work together, and Kristen from Hotslings helped me with things like the pouch's measurements and sewing testers and stuff like that. And Prescott is making me a spiffy new website which is going to rock!

Wow, the pressure is on... Very Happy

It's going to rock if I can ever get the damn thing done! Although Holden being back in school the past couple of days has made me *way* more productive, imagine that! I have a babysitter coming this afternoon so I can go hide out in the office and try to finish it.

I bet the new website will be great!!

Prescott - do you run this one from home then? I wasn't sure if you and Jessica worked and then did this on the side?

Kristy - the slings look very comfortable, and I liked the support one.

IP is still a side project, but yes, I am working out of the house now building my own communications and web design company. Given the current gas prices, I must say I'm loving the commute! Laughing
