Theres still an Arthurs in Manukau, its just moved up the road a bit past the Supacentre... I remember going into one in papakura... (although admittedly that was several years ago, so maybe they've changed?) and there wasnt really any fabric, just lots of arts and crafts and dressup type stuff... might go have a look and see what i can find in there now lol!

So much for one more question...

I noticed that some of the moby type wraps available (for eg, the skin2skin ones) have a stretchy contrast panel on the front, are there any patterns available to accomodate a front panel?

Then again... maybe I should try walking before running

If i was doing a panel, I would sew it over the normal wrap. If you put seams in it, it might mean it's not as strong. Just tuck the edges under and straight stitch it around all 4 sides.

So I went and checked out the material (and its changed to Davids Emproium... lol) and omg theres so many types... how do I know whats too stretchy, and whats not stretchy enough?? Also they had some material that kind of felt ok, and was super cheap at $1 a metre... but it was this awful dirty olive green colour (which would explain why its so cheap, its a nasty colour!) would it be worth getting enough of that material to have a go at making a Moby in case I F it up, and that way havent wasted so much $ on it? Or is it so easy to make that botching it is virtually impossible?

Oh and in the pattern, the centre part looks diamond shaped, but on videos on youtube, the front panel is more of a rectangular shape... does it matter either way?

My Moby (proper one, not home made) is like a thick t-shirt material. A bit of 2 way stretch but not much. Don't know if that helps!
