BABYWEARING SAFETY

Wrapstar is expanding!

Our family that is! We are in the final stretch of pregnancy with our third child! We are so excited that soon we will be meeting our son.

Due to this pregnancy, my husband changing jobs, and my oldest daughter's new school, I have been SO busy. Meaning....I haven't been getting a lot of sewing done.

I am finishing up an order of wrap conversion for the WONDERFUL online store, Zerbert's. I am also finishing up a few Mei Tais made with wrap panels for the WONDERFUL online store BeBe Wearing Mama's. I will notify everyone once those orders go out. They will make a wonderful Christmas gift to all my fans that have been patiently waiting for a Wrapstar to call their very own.

After this order, I will be going on maternity leave. I will keep updating the Facebook fan page, as well as answering emails. In what capacity I will come back after the New Year is still uncertain. I will need to look more into the ASTM standards and decide if I will be able to keep legally making carriers at the level I am doing. I hope that I will be able to keep making carriers......but I cannot make any promises. I will let you all know what I decide as soon as I know.

I hope this holiday season brings you all joy and lots of memorable babywearing moments!

Changes and new info

Luckily there has been a stay of enforcement for lead testing, so that is good.

I will hope to be going for the next year making babycarriers until other regulations become mandatory. I am working on new labels as well.

I am going to try to move into only doing wrap conversions, so if you are wanting a Mei Tai with canvas straps, start buying up what comes up in the next few months, b/c that will be the last of it.

I will be doing smaller waitlists as well. In preparation for Wrapstar to be closing its doors to US customers, I have taken on an extra job. That means, I wont have as much time to sew. SO, my new waitlist will be done in groups of 3. I will take three spots at a time. I hate that my current waitlist has taken SO long to finish because of a lot of unexpected personal conflicts (moving, holidays and a TON of snow days!).

With only taking 3 at a time, the hope is that those clients will not have to wait as long for their carriers.

I will also be doing waitlist JUST for legacy wrap quilts. So keep your eyes open for those. I will be taking those in groups of 3 as well.

To my loyal customers outside of the US, a lot of these new regulations will not affect you. And I hope to be making carriers for my foreign supporters for many years to come.

Thank you all..

We moved. It was horrible. I never want to move again. I will die in this house, then they can seal it up like my tomb. I never want to move again.

We love our new house, and we are getting settled in. But my time getting sewing done took a nose dive. I was so busy with packing, then moving, then unpacking.....I feel like I am finally getting back into the swing of things.

I know how frustrating this must have been for those of you on my custom list, having to wait longer. I am so apologetic about that, and appreciate your understanding.

I am finally rocking and rolling again, so I should be finishing up the custom list within in the next 2-3 wks.

Thank you again, to all my wonderful fans............
