Hiatus from Carriers

2009-12-17T16:35:00.002-06:00

Everyone that has contacted me about doing slipcovers or makeovers for carriers..... I'm sorry that I have been on hiatus for so long. I am no longer offering these services. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Kanga-J Slipcover-Windchime Floral

2008-10-15T20:47:00.003-05:00

This is an instock and ready to ship slipcover for a Kanga-J SSC. The coordinating prints are from the Windchime series by Donna Wilder. One side is floral, the other stripes. The hood is sewn on, so this cover is fully reversible. It pairs perfectly with natural, brown or avocado straps. I am in the process of transferring all babywearing business for Foursquare Fibre to Hyena Cart, so check back soon! More instocks will be listed.

One side shown hood up.

Kanga-J Slipcover

2008-09-17T08:39:00.000-05:00

This print is by ColorWorks. It is quilter's cotton.

This slipcover is for a Kanga-J SSC. The sleeping hood is attached to the inner with velcro.

Echino Applique

2008-09-17T08:37:00.001-05:00

Here is an alternate Echino Bird on an Ergo Metamorphosis.

Kanga-J Slipcover

2008-09-17T07:55:00.002-05:00

This is the original SSC in an Amy Butler Coriander print.

I love seeing the different fabric people like to do customs with. Some of it is more closely aligned with my own personal tastes, however. =) This is one of them. This print is Mocca by Alexander Henry; which you can see I have chosen to use in the past for other projects and SSC Metamorphosis. This lovely carrier underneath it is a Kanga-J, from

Bloo Kangaroo, the owner sent me her custom fabric and let me choose the reverse side which is also by AH, a print called Hollywood.

Here is the inner of the carrier with the velcro sleeping hood flipped up. The slipcover is fully reversible so you can switch it around and wear either side.

I love these two prints together. Who says flowers and geometrics don't match?

Mocha Yamo

2008-09-17T07:39:00.000-05:00

Here is the original inner/outer of the mocha and tan Yamo SSC.

The camera didn't really pick up the color as true to life, but it was all-over dyed a lovely deep purple.

This is the inner, you can see where the polyester Yamo tag doesn't pick up the dye.

For reference a piece of dark chocolate twill next to it to show off the purple color. (The brown is not showing it's true color either, it's really not milk chocolate, it's espresso.) This carrier was sent as a well loved, used carrier that we knew might have some slight worn spots or imperfections show through the dye. The pictures don't do it justice, it turned out a fabulous Earthy Purple and really took the dye well all-over.

Batik Ergo

2008-09-17T07:23:00.000-05:00

This is another older generation Ergo that I did a Metamorphosis on. The outer pocket was removed and might be added back on at a later date. The body is the peachy/salmon color and the pink batik complemented it very well. The close-up is the applique on the hood using batiks and hand dyed fabric.

Echino Ergo

2008-09-06T07:44:00.001-05:00

This is a recently finished Metamorphosis on a maroon and black New Generation Ergo. The inner is a Bali batik in teal and dark navy, and the outer is Echino Birds from Japan. I did seat darts to match the existing darts on the Ergo-both for the inner and outer cover.

Works in progress...

2008-08-31T16:36:00.000-05:00

This blog will be where I show works in progress from Foursquare Fibre. I will also feature new products and services and showcase finished projects in my gallery.
