This is a great gift idea! To make it easier to get the foam into the cloth bag slide the foam inside a plastic bag then into the fabric. pull the bag out, easy peasy.
Nicole says
This is genius! Seriously, I wish I had one of these. I have been lugging around my 8 month old baby girl, hurting my arm all the time! She’s about to outgrow her seat as she’s so long, so it’s too late for me, but I definitely want to make one of these for other new moms! Brilliant!
Joan says
This was so easy to make. The instructions are really clear and it was fun to make.
I gave it to my daughter for her daughter that will be born soon. She loved it.
Thanks for posting it! Joan
Sharon Davis says
I am making this for my new grandson and before I finish I wanted to make sure I am doing it right. I am confused why you said to get 14inches of Velcro when if I understand it correctly you are only using about 7 inches. (Sewing one strip of velcro on one end and the closing strip at other end) Please email as soon as you can to clear up my confusion. Thank you so much for your support and your cute and useful pattern.

Kerri King says
Hi! Great question! You are right – you only use 7″. I put 14″ because I was adding together the 7″ of the hook side and 7″ of the loop side of Velcro. Hope that clears up the confusion. 🙂 Glad you are using the pattern. Let me know if you have any other questions!
Lovey D says
Thank you for the tutorial! I found this via pinterest, and just made one tonight for a friend. Your tutorial is very clear and easy to follow, and this is a super idea!!!! I’m really pleased at how mine turned out. Thanks so much!

Seven years ago when I invented the arm handle cushion, I knew I had come up with an idea that would save not only my arm but other moms too. I worked really hard, sewed over 300 myself before finding a factory, and made sure to get it patented. Our US Patent was granted and I was ecstatic – all those years of hard work paid off. It’s amazing when one small idea can change the marketplace and make moms’ lives easier. Since it is patent protected, we encourage all posts like this to visit our website and if you need a copy of the patent, we can email it to you. Thanks!
Jenn says
Instructions for a DIY version do not violate a patent. Read the laws.
Sara says
I made one just a second ago and it is already making me smile:) Now to attach it to my little girl’s car seat. I am due in Feb!! Thanks for the clear and accurate tutorial!
Jennifer says
Where did you get the foam?
Amanda says
Joann’s has foam and some craft stores. I have a kroger store by me that had the foam in the camping department for only 2.99 so I got it there. Much cheaper!
Joyce Atkins says
I was wondering how you got the toys on the ribbon if it is sewn into the material,
Nat says
I just finished doing this and it looks awesome, my sewing kinda sucks so it looks a little off, but it does the job :-).. I am new to sewing and I haven’t gotten the hang of it :-/ thanks for the post! A pattern would be most helpful though 🙂 thanks again!
Sewing Sally says
A friend of mine pinned this on Pinterest. Well, I know that she can’t sew, so it gave me the idea to make it for her. It took less than 30 minutes and just some scraps I had laying around! I figured that the fit would be super tight, so I shortened my stitch length and sewed an extra straight stitch in the seam allowance. I was skeptical that the Velcro would hold this closed, but so far it is standing strong! Thanks for sharing your DIY!
P.S. Anyone else reading this tutorial, the seam allowance is 1/4 inch.
Kelsey says
Love this! So easy to follow. Saved me 25$ from having to buy one! Thank you for sharing!
Emily says

Please email me the instructions on making this cover for baby seat cover. I am making the strap covers and also the car seat cover.
