---+ What Carrier Should I Make?

That's kind of a big question. Let's start here:
   * How much sewing experience do you have?
   * How much babywearing experience do you have?
   * Do you have a newborn?
   * Do you have a toddler/preschooler?
   * Do you live in a particularly hot climate?
   * How much versatility do you need out of this one carrier?
