Maya’s Mei Tai, Version 3.0
Somehow, I slammed a strap from Version 1.0 in the car door — it was ripped clean off as if someone had used scissors on it. Oops. I sold version 2.0 without taking any pictures of it. Seriously, a gal at Pei Wei liked it enough, when I told her I was making them, her response was, “can I just buy that one?” Even after I told her I had some changes to make to it, she still wanted that one. Yay! Here’s V3.0:
Please ignore the icky hair…these pics are from post-gym!
I’ve padded the shoulders a bit, and lengthened both the waist and shoulder straps from v2.0. As you can see, the shoulder straps are probably a *tad* too long on this one. While the bow is very CUTE, I doubt any dad would want to use it this way!
I bought the green material after finding it on the sale rack from walmart, then went on the hunt to find deco fabric to go with it. Yes, yes…I know leopard print has been in for long enough that it’s on its way out, but I love the way it turned out!
I’d used a ring sling for post-workout dinner, and then used this for a quick grocery shop before returning home. I’ve gotta say, this is TONS more comfortable than the sling could ever be!
