    Hammocks for little people

    Spent the last couple of weeks making hammocks and future backpackers for several of my grandkids. The first pic is for the youngest, 9 months. Then a pic of the other three. Colors are by request. They are according to the dimensions given by Just Jeff, 75"x45". Each one has a ridge line, whoopie sling suspension, side tie outs, tree huggers with marlin spike and stuff sack. All sewn with matching thread. Great fun and a few more to go but they are much larger.

    Nice job ..I bet the kiddos will love them. I had thought of making them for my nieces and nephews...but there are 14 of them....
    Lack of preparation on your part does not constitue an emergency on mine.


    Not sure who said it ...but I like it

    Great work Granddad. My granddaughters are after me for their own hammocks also.
