---+ Tablecloth Babywearing Tablecloths can make for great baby carriers! They are often cheaper than bolt fabric at the fabric store, and a jacquard tablecloth is going to be the closest thing you can come to woven wrap material (short of buying <a href="http://www.echarpe-portage-colimacon.com/en/" target="_blank">Colimaçon et Cie</a>.) Just make sure your tablecloth fits the [[SafeFabric][Four Rules of Fabric Selection]] and you'll be good! The most popular brand is the cotton jacquard tablecloths by Mahogany available on [[http://www.amazon.com][Amazon.com]]. ---++++ Woven Wraps A 60" by 104" tablecloth can be cut in half to 30" wide and the raw edge hemmed to make two size 2 woven wraps. A 120" makes a long 2/short 3 and is a popular shorty size. Both of these can also be used as a <a href="https://youtu.be/WJHV_yFxRoI" target="_blank">no-sew ring sling</a>. Another option, although slightly controversial, is to take your two tablecloth halves and seam them together to make a longer wrap. The suggested method for doing this are a french seam, a flat felled seam, or a 6"-12" overlap. Jan from Sleeping Baby Productions has a <a href="https://youtu.be/s8UWIL_rKSk" target="_blank">great tutorial</a> for doing this. ---++++ Ring Sling A 60" wide tablecloth with a minimum length of about 80" can be cut in half and the raw edge hemmed to sew into a ring sling using [[RingSling][our tutorial]]. -- %USERSIG{AlyssaLeonard - 2016-07-26}%
