<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br />
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">There
are a number of good reasons, as a new mum, that would encourage you to
buy nappies already made. But there are a greater number of good
reasons to have a crack at making your own! </span><br />
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br />

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“But
- I don’t have enough time to sew!” - that’s probably true - for a
little while. But there is something soothing to a new baby about being
worn wrapped around mum while she does her everyday jobs - and let’s
face it, sitting down sometimes makes us feel as though we are lazy. If
you’re DOING SOMETHING while you are sitting down, it’s not so bad. And
if you are doing something that is both practical and creative, you are
ticking more boxes than you thought you had!</span><br />

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“But
- it seems so HARD to do!” - this one is really not the case. Sure,
your first ever nappy might be a little bit wonky. But really, a nappy
is straight stitch, elastic, some more straight stitch, and possibly, if
you feel like it, a little bit of zig-zagging. It’s not fiddling with
pleats and gussets and zipper placement, and it’s not rocket science.
But there are enough <a href="http://www.nappiescovered.com.au/pages/Free-Patterns-Links.html" target="_blank">patterns</a> and<a href="http://www.nappiescovered.com.au/pages/Sewing-Tutorials.html" target="_blank"> tutorials</a> out there that even if your
first nappy is wonky, it will still work. And that’s the really
important thing. (Put it on bubs when it’s cold and he or she is wearing
pants over the top, and no-one will see it anyway!)</span><br />

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“I
usually HATE sewing” This one is great. I used to hate sewing. I used
to LOATHE it - because I was always trying to make big things that never
fitted properly. Things for me that looked like sacks when I finally
got around to wearing them. OR - I went the other way, and spent hours
sewing boring, straight seams on library bags and pillowcases in the
vain hope that by doing that, I’d somehow be able to miraculously manage
shirring on a top the next time I sat at the machine.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"> The thing with
nappies are - they are simple, yet you learn new skills that will make
them enjoyable to sew and give you a huge sense of achievement once
completed. They are small enough to be a little project that doesn’t
drag on over a week - and that makes you feel good too! And because
they are a little bit like underwear, they are still usable if not 100%
perfect - which means no throwing out mistakes!</span><br />

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">“I
don’t have a sewing machine and I can’t afford one” This is one
objection that’s hard to overcome. However - for every person who
doesn’t have a sewing machine, there are two people who have one who
don’t use it (Don’t quote me, I made that statistic up. But every writer
is allowed a little bit of literary leeway, right?) One of those people
may be your mother, your sister, your uncle, your next door neighbour,
even that strange old fellow down the road who walks past every day
mumbling under his breath and doesn’t really look at anyone. For all you
know, he might be mumbling about seam allowances and set-in cap sleeves
as he walks along. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">There are also community centres with sewing
machines available for use (these sometimes come with creches, which can
be very useful!). Essentially, I’m trying to say that finding a sewing
machine might not be as difficult as it first looks. The simplest of
machines will work for a nappy. Your local op-shop may even have one for
next to nothing. </span><br />

don’t want to sew them. I just want to use them!” - Ok. If you really
really don’t want to sew your own, there are still a few ways to get the
nappies that you want. Pre-made colourful WAHM nappies are absolutely
beautiful, sewn by Mums and Dads that have made so many nappies their
skills are near to perfect. But that experience can come with a price
tag. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">If you want nappies in your choices of fabrics for a better price -
find that friend or relative with the sewing machine, and ask them to
do the sewing for you. They will feel like they are helping out in a
real, practical way. They will learn some new techniques and skills in
the process. You will have the nappies that you like and you chose. And
you have also spread the word about modern cloth nappies in a simple,
non-threatening way to your nearest and dearest. With this option,
everybody wins!</span><br />

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Microfleece is that super squishy polyester
fabric made out of recycled PET bottles. We use it in the nappy world as
a liner between bubs’ bum and the absorbent part of the nappy.
Sometimes we can double it up and use it as a breathable outer layer for
a daytime nappy.</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">You’ve
probably seen it used as a winter school uniform fabric. It keeps you
warm with only a light layer and washes up well time and time again.
It’s also difficult for boys to wear through the knees of, so it makes
fabulous trackies.</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Have
you ever wondered what else you could do with it? Here’s a few ideas
that I threw together that you might want to try - and if you do I want
photos!</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">-
Softies - making little soft toys for your children is easy peasy out
of microfleece. It doesn’t fray, and therefore doesn’t need hemming OR
overlocking - just cut and sew and stuff! It’s also easy to wash so if
you stuff it with polyester you can machine wash them when they get
covered in spaghetti sauce and weetbix.</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">-
Scarves - oh so easy peasy fringed scarves, warm and toasty, NO SEWING
REQUIRED! Just cut it long and then chop the ends into strips for
tassles. A great fun winter school holidays project.</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">
- Blankets! - There are so many different ways of making microfleece
blankets. You can patchwork it, you can sew them seams out for texture
(remember, no fraying!) and you can even make blankets with NO SEWING -
cut large squares, cut fringes into all four sides - and tie the fringes
together with the square next it - voila! Blanket in no time!</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"><a href="http://www.nappiescovered.com.au/categories/Inner-Nappy-Fabrics/Suedecloth/">Suedecloth</a>
is another polyester fabric that washes up beautifully that we usually
use as a nappy liner or inner. It’s not so warm as microfleece, but it
certainly has other uses!</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">
- Upholstery - yep, I said it. Fabulous for chair backs/cushion
covers/seat covers. Heck, you could even try covering a couch with it - a
couple of swappable couch covers would be perfect to save your couch
from the vagaries of texta and corn chip crumbs, and will wash up in
your machine and look like new. Team it with the <a href="http://www.nappiescovered.com.au/categories/Elastic-%26-FOE/Fold-Over-Elastic-%252d-FOE/">fold-over elastic</a> to
snuggle your edges in tightly and you’re good to go.</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://www.nappiescovered.com.au/products/Bamboo-Terry-%252d-Natural-%252d-Double-Sided.html"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Bamboo Terry</span></a></span><br />

- Towels. OK, so it seems obvious, but Jodie has made a towel from the
bamboo terry, and I have seriously contemplated holding it for ransom. I
want one. Or 6. Soooooo thirsty and fluffy and soft despite repeated
washings. *sigh* I have bamboo towel lust. You could easily do face
washers too. And if you really care a lot about Grandmas old crystal
collection you could spoil it with a bamboo terry tea towel.</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">
- Blankets and wraps. Because of the pile on this fabric, it not only
works fabulously to trap the wetness in cloth nappies, it also traps
air. Which means it insulates REALLY well. It’s super soft, and with the
extra insulation properties, you have the perfect winter blanket, pram
blanket, or wrap. Just overlocking the edges of a single layer will keep
your little one snuggly and warm, encased in a purely natural fabric.</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://www.nappiescovered.com.au/categories/Inner-Nappy-Fabrics/Flannelette/"> Flannelette</a></span><br />

<br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Whilst the traditional use for flannel is pyjamas, there are loads of other options that work equally well.</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">-
Bibs made from flannel are fabulous. Edge them in bias binding or just
turn and top-stitch. Using flannel as a bib at mealtimes means that you
can use the bib to wipe your little one’s face clear of the spaghetti
sauce and throw the whole thing in the wash - without the itchy scratchy
feel of a synthetic against the skin. Or course, you can back the bib
with PUL, meaning that brand new white top he’s wearing won’t turn pink
after dinner too.</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">
- You can buy a nappy cut of the flannel, to use JUST for the gorgeous
prints - cut around them, and use them as applique on the corners of
towels, facewashers, and wraps.</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">
- Speaking of wraps - nothing is better than a flannel wrap for a
newborn in winter. Thin enough to wrap securely, a double layer flannel
wrap is cosy and warm too!</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://www.nappiescovered.com.au/categories/Outer-Nappy-Fabrics-PUL/"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">PUL</span></a></span><br />

<br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Because of it’s waterproof qualities, PUL has a whole range of uses other than just the outers of nappies. </span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">
- Swim bags! Yep, keep your kids bathers and towel in style. PUL will
stop the usual slow leak from the nylon-style bags you get at the shops,
it will mean no plastic coles bags are required, and it’s super strong
too - no tears or rips are likely! And it comes in so many colours your
child will recognise the bag from miles away - and so will their
teacher, when they leave it behind. Seal the seams up with our seam-seal
tape, and you’ve got an extra layer of protection in place that will
prevent soggy schoolbooks at the end of the day.</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">-
Backing bibs, as per the flannel conversation. Also, using as the front
of a bib for those super-messy, wipe-ups required style meals. Works
well if you have a husband who slurps his soup, too.</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">
- Nappy bags, Wipe bags, backing washable menstrual pads, even backing
your nursing pads if you are anything like I was when breastfeeding -
one side feeds, the other showers the entire neighbourhood - having a
PUL-backed nursing pad with 3 layers of bamboo on the front was PERFECT
for that let-down rush.</span><br />

from earlier in the year. I love bamboo velour. It’s slinky and soft
and sexy and just superb. Blankets, wraps, facecloths, tracksuits - so
many things you can do with it! Nappies are only one small part of the
glory of the bamboo velour. I want bamboo velour handkerchiefs. Imagine
how spoilt my nose would feel after it’s latest sneezing attack. I’m
allergic to grass. Bamboo is a type of grass. But I’m SOOOO not allergic
to bamboo fabric.</span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"></span><br /><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: Arial; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">So, I hope I have proved that the only limit to uses for nappy fabrics - is your imagination!</span></div>Jodiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08454421420101321626noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5272828822700145894.post-19497550282715548692011-06-03T09:38:00.000+09:302011-06-03T09:38:58.668+09:30Lime Daisy Designs - Cloth nappies for your boobs!<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

<span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;">This time we are meeting the lovely Aileen from Lime Daisy design, another one of my customers who has taken her beautiful sewing skills and made a business of it :) </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;">Here's the hello from Aileen -</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;">Hi,
I’m Aileen Mum of 2 little ones and owner of LimeDaisy Design. I
started <a href="http://www.limedaisydesign.com.au/">LimeDaisy Design</a> long before I ever had children and use to
focus mainly on painted crafts and candles. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;">With my first son I found
that I loved using cloth breast pads and found some in Canada that were
good, but not great. I leaked often and must have had about 40 pairs to
ensure I always had some dry ones on hand. With my second child, a
daughter, I figured there had to be a better way. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;">I discovered Nappies
Covered just after my daughter was born in 2009 and Jodie was so
extremely helpful and wonderful in helping me out with the fabrics I
needed to use. I even went to the Melbourne Baby show just to meet her
and see the fabrics in person. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-y02sa6N1eaU/TeghZWDakJI/AAAAAAAAAgs/_BHWRQuKLUQ/s1600/lime+daisy+pads.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-y02sa6N1eaU/TeghZWDakJI/AAAAAAAAAgs/_BHWRQuKLUQ/s400/lime+daisy+pads.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;">Essentially I made a cloth nappy for
your boobs! If the fabrics were good enough to put on your baby’s
bottom and contain the mess, then they would definitely be good enough
for the milk I was producing! So after some trial and error I came up
with Daisy Pads – Bamboo Core breast pads and have not looked back
since. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;">There are hundreds of Mums out there using them now (one
customer told me that LimeDaisy boobs, were happy boobs – my new
unofficial slogan). I chose to do them in fun fabrics because I really
want Mums to have fun while they are breastfeeding. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-8LjNrtxgIok/TegjgeJ5FUI/AAAAAAAAAg0/6NKhGBMS9IU/s1600/lime+daisy+package.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-8LjNrtxgIok/TegjgeJ5FUI/AAAAAAAAAg0/6NKhGBMS9IU/s400/lime+daisy+package.JPG" width="300" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;">I feel that it is
extremely important to care about the environment so these pads should
last you through all your breastfeeding years. They save you money on
buying the horrid papery disposable ones and with the fun fabrics they
make breastfeeding a special time and a talked about time. I love that I
have gotten to have a fantastic experience breastfeeding my children
and I would encourage every Mum to give it a go. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;"> If it works for you,
it will be the most wonderful experience.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;"> </span></div>
<span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt;">Since
starting making the breast pads I’ve also rediscovered a love of sewing
so I am slowly branching out to other fun items – and ones that work
for my toddlers as they grow. Stop on by <a href="http://www.limedaisydesign.com.au/">my store</a> for a visit, you
might just find something you didn’t know you needed.</span><br />

Once we had discussed that, the conversation moved on to fabric and nappies. The conversation flowed and flowed and we talked about our love of fabric and colours.<br />
Nappies were discussed, how wonderful they are and how much fun they are to sew. <br />

Kristy started sewing
MCN's to match her little girls outfits for special occassions &
suddenly realised what a fortune she was wasting on disposable nappies when
cloth was so easy to use (not to mention developing a little fabric buying
addiction) .....the product was so great that 'MJ's Mummy' was born.<br />

<br />
Kristy's aim is to stay at home & look
after her children whilst making really cute nappies & baby
products that are fun to use and are good for the environment......saving us all
some money.<br />

and basically anything artsy and crafty. She loves nothing better than
receiving special requests to make unique items, which she loves doing.<br />
Katherine now has an online store where she sells her gorgeous items, pop by and have a look!<br />

I never thought I was going to be a business running from home, I thought it would always remain my hobby<br />
<br />
When I started my business, it wasn't a business - it was just a hobby. I was selling to a few friends a product I was passionate about, I was 'sharing the love' so to speak. It wasn't long before others shared the love too and before I knew it more and more people were requesting my items, my hobby turned into a business in a matter of weeks.<br />
<br />
I remember my first large purchase, I spent around $500 and was quaking in my boots scared I'd made a huge mistake and I would lose all my money.<br />
<br />
See this tub - <br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_WQq-H-ENAkw/TN-HTjbQR1I/AAAAAAAAAc4/rh_8_GSNRnQ/s1600/plastic+tub.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="126" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_WQq-H-ENAkw/TN-HTjbQR1I/AAAAAAAAAc4/rh_8_GSNRnQ/s200/plastic+tub.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>
I had six of these and that is what my stock was in when I first started. I was so happy to have so much stock. I had each tub labelled so I didn't have to dig through them to find the stock that was ordered. <br />
<br />
This picture below is what I have these days, not tubs but shelves and a whole warehouse full of fabric. Since this photo has been taken my stock needs have grown once again and we are now looking at more shelving options. If you look closely you can still see those little tubs being put to good use for smaller items!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
So what is the meaning of this blog post you say?<br />
<br />
I wanted to show others that they too can start something that is a hobby and turn that hobby into a work at home business. You don't need much - just a passion for what you do, a few tubs and a smile on your face! <br />

<br />
Amanda is a stay at home mum to a toddler and she has another baby on the
way. Amanda started making her own MCN's for her son, then started giving them away as baby
shower gifts and to friends with new babies.<br />
<br />
Amanda then decided to have a go at
selling her creations on Ebay and on her Facebook page. She loves sewing and creating cute
nappies and covers that will have people asking "Where did you get that?" She also loves the fact that by using cloth nappies she is doing her bit for the
environment and is also saving money for more important things.<br />
<br />
We'd love you to pop past Amanda's <a href="http://www.facebook.com/NappiesCovered#%21/pages/Pocket-Rocket-Nappies/109287115765854?v=wall">Face Book page</a> and have a look at her creations.<br />

It has suffered from neglect since I switched over stores, the new one supporting word press blogs where I now run my store based blog from.<br />
<br />
I thought about deleting this one but then had a brain wave!
What if I use this blog to help promote those who buy their items from me! What a great idea and what a wonderful way to spread the word on who is out there and what they are making.<br />
<br />
A lot of my customers are work at home mums, and getting your name and product into the face of the public is hard.....so I'm keeping this blog as a place to 'direct' the public to some of the best fabrics and products around...hence the name -<br />
<br />
Nappies Covered - Nappy Directory.<br />
<br />
I can't wait to showcase all of my talented customers. If you are one of them, send me an email at jodie @ nappiescovered . com .au (minus the spaces) and some images and we'll take it from there!<br />

Too many lives have been lost already, such a huge tragedy for all. I wish I could do something to help ease the pain.

My lovely shop, which I adore, yesterday almost killed me!
There was no air conditioning. I had taken a thermometer to work with me so I keep could keep an eye on the inside temp.
It got to 38 degrees C last time I checked.
I still managed to pack all the orders as I melted away.
If anyone finds any problems with your orders I apologise but my brain was almost all gloop! :)

Then you visit all the participating sponsor sites and hunt for the Diaper Decisions™ nappy, to earn entries to the 47 random prize drawings, including Three Grand Prizes! Prices are worth in excess of $4000.
For more details about this great event, please visit the Rules and FAQ pages at <a href="http://www.diaperdecisions.com/pages/greatnappyhunt.php" target="_blank" _base_target="_blank"> http://www.diaperdecisions.com/pages/greatnappyhunt.php</a> . See you at the hunt!
If you get stuck whilst hunting, please visit the official Hint Forum <a href="http://www.diaperdecisions.com/forum2/index.php?board=26.0" target="_blank" _base_target="_blank"> http://www.diaperdecisions.com/forum2/index.php?board=26.0</a> and ask for help. Sponsors will not be giving out hints however in the first few days of the hunt. Remember it is a competition.
