Eyes of the World
Whispering Grass
Vein
Silent Stumps Speak (Denim)

Those are my favorite. I really love the first one best, but that is probably because I like paisley. :)

Thanks for entering me into the contest! I hope I win, because I don't even own a real carrier yet! I'm also really excited to finally be able to talk about and recommend a carrier on TBW. ;)

Stacey said...

Unknown said...

My top 4 would probably be:
fields of honey
garden
Stumps Speak w/ Words
Graceland

beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!

Sarah AJ said...

Tough choice on this one! My top four are:
Fields of Honey
Whispering Grass BW
Silent Stumps Speak (Denim)
Eyes of the World

Rae said...

Wow! all so beautiful! I'm gonna say whispering grass, vein, fields of honey in that order
keep up the good work ;-)

Ashley said...

I love your wraps! I also serge wraps and I love your fabric choices, even though I cannot feel them, I can see how lovely they must be!
For the solids, I like the lime green, orange and pink. I am not in love with any of the prints.

Ashley said...

For the ring slings, I love Fields of Honey. Stumps Speak w/Words is intriguing, I want to know what else it says. I love the swirls on both Stump fabrics. Eyes of the World is also quite nice.
Uncomplicated is my least favorite.

I really like Eyes of the World, Fields of Honey, and the Whispering Gras BW. Such nice stuff!

erika~ the inspired mama said...

wow! truely, they are all gorgeous!! any of them would make a very pretty sling, but my favorite two are "Whispering Grass" and "Eyes of the World"

Ashley said...

Fields of Honey, Eyes of the World- beautiful! And I love Graceland simply for the name :)

Anonymous said...

my votes go to

fields of honey
whispering grass
silent stumps speak
eyes of the world

One thing that I'm looking for in a sling is a "gender neutral" fabric. not so much for the baby (they don't care!) but for my husband :) I love sweet jane, but I can't see DH using it too much.

Lindsey J said...

I really love the whispering grass BW and the eyes of the world. I also like Graceland and vein. Such a difficult decision--they're all beautiful!u

Great fabrics! I like Fields of Honey, Whispering grass, Eyes of the World, and Let it grow. The last two above look like they coordinate together. Don't know if you can do anything with coordinating fabrics, but I bet it would look nice!

SherryL said...

very nice choices, all are great but again because I like simple, Vein is my first choice, stumps speak or silent stumps are very nice (though out of those 2 I like the silent stumps best) and the whispering grass BW is my last choice, graphic but not too much! good luck to everyone in the contest!

For the organic cotton wrap fabrics I would say a mix of solid and pattern would be best. I liked Surrender and Ohio.

For the Organic Cotton Sling I liked:
Fields of Honey
Sweet Jane
and Eyes of the World

I would LOVE to win one of these AWSOME wraps! Thanks!!!!

Hannah said...

This is really really hard! Any of those fabrics would be a great choice!

These three are my top picks though (I think ;)):


Garden
Graceland
Silent Stumps Speak

karmama said...

Garden
Whispering Grass
Silent Stumps Speak
Eyes of the World

are my 4 faves.

Meredith A. said...

Oh my gosh... they are all BEAUTIFUL! I absolutely LOVE the whispering grass in blue! I also love the eyes of the world, vein, & fields of honey.

Linda said...

Hmm, I only really would consider Fields of Honey, but would probably be more likely to go solid than one of these prints.

mrslilypond said...

Fields of Honey & Let it Grow

Jenn said...

I like the Whispering Grass B&W or the Garden the best- such pretty fabrics!

Jaime said...

LOVE field of honey!! That is my favorite! Whispering grass is really pretty. I also love the Let It Grow.

K said...

I think my favorite patter is Silent Stumps Speak, but I don't know if I like the twill idea. I like Eyes of the World, Silent Stumps Speak, Whispering grass (the blue one), and Fields of Honey. They are all really gorgeous.

Anonymous said...

WOW!!! I love them all, except for the words and the Let It Grow. I especially love the B&W print, and the orange. I think B&W is so classy looking, and matches everything.

carla said...
