Glad to see that someone else also thought of it!! RoseAnn, I figure no one sees it unders his shirts so what? My husband complained a little too. But he couldn't come up with anything better.

Guest guest Posted August 23, 1999 Report Share Posted August 23, 1999 Something else that I did for Jake's processor was : I bought him the tank top looking undershirts that have a long tail. I turned up the bottom (to the outside of the shirt) and just sewed it all the way around except for a space just big enough to put the processor in. Then I stitched down beside the opening to make a little *pocket* effect so the processor wasn't running around his waist inside the shirt!. Then I sewed in velcro by hand to close it. Once I figured it all out, I knew where to put the velcro before I turned the hem up and saved myself some work. It took about 3 minutes to finish it and the shirts are something like $5 for a 3 pack. He likes them when it is cold. In the summer he wears his Batman waist pack. The processor is easy to get to for teachers and parents in the shirts. I made a few with the pocket in the front and some in the back. He likes it in front, but for the babies I think the back might be best so they don't mess with the knobs! Elaine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway if she could just see what one looks like she may be able to make a pattern that people could use....let me know if it is possible to send me a harness (perhaps one witha broken buckle that you are not using) My grandma is very supportive and I am sure she would love to help. ~ and 's Mom > >> I saw the T-shirts for sale with the pocket for the processor but have >you >> run into anyone who has designed a harness on their own that can be sewn >out >> of different types of fabrics to meet an individual wearers needs.
