chloe toes

I couldn’t remember if I had posted about these or not, but after taking a look I guess I forgot! These were finished before our big trip back to Washington to visit my parents. It’s kind of sad but I suppose these medium covers are the last of the diapers I will need for E-chan. [...]


Ok so I myself am sick of hearing myself talk about my sewing machine that has been on a trip for some time now. Finally there is an end to all the drama. It’s been 7 weeks and I reached my breaking point. I guess my husband had had enough of me bitching and moaning [...]


Got tired of waiting for Viking to finish giving my machine a tune-up so my nice husband let me get a back-up. I’ve given up on my machine coming back any time soon–what on earth are they doing with it? Is it lost? It wasn’t even broken to begin with. Poo. You can bet I [...]

Here’s a little project I’ve been working on for a long time. It took so long because the diapers are never clean all at once so I had to do just a few at a time. So it took a few weeks, but here they are!

I used Dylon, and it was so easy! All you [...]


wet bag

13Jun08

Another much needed wet bag made from pretty batik fabric from some pals in WA. It’s darker in real life, dunno why the color is washed out in the pic. Sewing knit PUL is totally over my head, I should just avoid it in the future. I tried using some tear out stabilizer to help [...]


Now that I have a bunch of zippers, I could finish up this wetbag. I think I had this fabric cut out when M was little and still in diapers but never got around to putting a zipper in. I used this tutorial on craftster.org to put it together. Of course, I forgot to put [...]


burp cloths

I’ve been dying to make these since I saw a few on the diaperswappers website. They were so easy and turned out super cute. I got some cheap prefolds from Babies R Us the other day when we went to look at the gliders. Turns out we couldn’t even order a glider. I don’t get [...]


Diaper stash building is going so slowly. What I really need are newborn covers, but I just had to use this cute owl flannel. It is from the JoAnn’s clearance rack, $3/yard. A nice friend got me this pattern and it is totally awesome. Of course my sewing is wonky as usual and I need [...]


My first attempts at cloth diaper making were so pitiful I couldn’t even bear to take photos of them. So here are some that are not so bad. I got these kits from diaperkit.com. They were about $6 or $7 a piece. There is a fitted diaper (white with velcro), an AIO or all-in-one (light [...]
