Squeezing in a *bit* of crafting before labor (PIP

[jlandjl]

Not much longer before I'll have two competing with crafting time, so I'm trying to squeeze in what I can. I have a couple more completed project pictures that I need to upload before my hiatus...but here's what I've uploaded so far.

Upcycled Monkey Hat

"Moby" type carrier made out of swimsuit fabric. I hope it will keep the baby snug enough, while also being quick drying. Not planning on taking her swimming, but I can't imagine she won't get wet a bit with big brother splashing.

Gosh I initially thought you were telling us you were IN labor when I read the post title. I thought to myself, okay okay, now I love crafting, BUT....not enough to sew in between contractions.

Looking forward to seeing how well your wrap works out!

LOL...I thought the same thing. I ocassionally read a crochet forum and recently there was a thread about all these women who were crocheting during active labor--to the point that the dr had to ask them to stop and push. Crazy.

Really cute hat and can't wait to see that baby!

LOL! Oh gosh...I can't imagine crafting during labor. I am one who uses every second of the day, but I can't imagine crafting between contractions!

Thanks for the compliments!
