Unregistered	I made some "improvements" to my prefold diapers. First I dyed them a light aqua and a light pink, then added some cute print material down the middle. I also made a matching doubler to go with it. Attached Image

I'm not talented at all. These were super easy to make! If you want to see talent, you should watch my mom sew! She's awesome!! I wish I had her talent!!

I plan on doing more; just don't have enough time right now. It's hard to find time when all the kids are being good and no one is crying, LOL!

Yes, they are better for baby (and the environment). And they are so much fun to use! Makes an unpleasant job much more bearable, that's for sure!

How cost effective are they? Do they give the baby a rash when they sit in them? This post has been edited by thelittlemac on Aug 23 2004, 07:43 AM

Cloth is great! Nothing compares to it!

They are very cost effective, especially if you use them on more than one child. It's like diapering future children for free! Washing them is so easy. Most people think it must be really hard, but it's not! I just put all of the diapers, covers, and wipes in the washing machine. Then I do a cold rinse, then a hot wash, and another cold rinse. I only use 1/3 of the detergent I would normally use. Then everything goes in the dsryer except the covers. They should be hung, or laid out to dry.

We don't have any rashes with cloth. It's great!

Let me know if you want any more info. I can get more if you want

Thanks for the compliment, but they don't look that good up close. You would see some flaws right away. But, they are only diapers, so it doesn't matter. I'd like to have my own business some day, but I don't know when that would happen

Maybe Schnoogly would let you sell some of your stuff through her biz? Or maybe you could just help her sew her goods. From what I understand, her business is taking off. I'd email her if I were you. It may be a good way to make a few bucks doing something that you love and believe in.

Unregistered	i have no idea what im doing here so i apologies that i dont have pretty pictures and stuff but i did want to say what a good idea for more cosmetically pleasing diapers another thought for clothe nappies is to tie dye them they look fantastic
