The Geeky Sweetheart Babywearing Bag

The day that I wore Korben to the Zoo and pushed the stroller solely to carry the diaper bag, I knew I needed to get myself a babywearing bag.

First I found the Onbag tutorial.  It looked good and I'm so appreciative that it's available but, all those rolled hems seemed daunting.  After some more searching, I found the Geeky Sweetheart Wrap Strap Bag tutorial.  I initially liked that the straps were turned and topstitched, but as I started making the bag I realized how much thought had gone into it's design.  I love the big pockets with darts that are stitched into the lining (my giant wallet fits right into them), I love the bottom corners of the bag, and I really like how the zipper is installed.

I mostly wanted the bag, so that I could wear it with Korben on my back.

But it also converts to a back pack for when you're carrying baby in the front.  Even though he's 24 lbs now, I still do carry him in the front every once in a while, so this comes in handy.

This past weekend I wore him and the bag for a couple hours and I love it!  The bag weighs nothing!  I put all the same stuff that goes in the traditional diaper bag inside it, and I was amazed at how light it is.  I'm guessing it's the wide straps.  Thanks so much Geeky Sweetheart!
