Tutorial: Sew a broken arm sling

Having a broken arm is no fun. I can speak those words from experience! Having a custom made sling instead of the ugly hospital issued sling did make it a little bit better. My mother-in-law made me a couple of them so I could have several patterns to choose from. Sara from Radiant Home Studio shows how she made a sling for her daughter’s broken arm. Her sling is very similar to the ones my mother-in-law made me, and I’m sure the one she made cheered her daughter up as much as the ones made for me.
