Si's new diaper!

I couldn't resist posting this. Its SO ADORABLE!!! Its a dyed and embellished prefold diaper with CARS material from the movie.

The last set before vacation!

Here are the last two diapers I made before vacation. They are so cool! I wish I could see my customers faces when they receive them. I've got a few more orders in the works so will have things waiting for me when I get home. Enjoy!

P.S. - In case you didn't know my husband, son, and I will be camping in the Tetons next week! Camping with an infant should be FUN!

P.P.S.- Can you find the mistake I made on one of these diapers? Free shipping on anything in my store if you find it and email me!

Weekend Projects and Etsy Update

Well, the orders just keep pouring in for my custom Rivalry Diapers. My first set of team material is set to arrive Tuesday so will post these creations on by the end of the week!

Here are pics of this weekends festivities. I (my mom) made a ring sling for Si and I and I sewed up 2 pocket diapers from a fleece remnant I got from my mom. SO ADORABLE!!! I've got a newborn-size and a large-size.

**If anyone reading would like to attend the cloth diapering event at Milkworks on Saturday, July 12th you will need to RSVP. The phone number is on the website.

So sleepy, must go to bed

I'm writing this at almost 9:30 in the evening. I've been up until about 1:30 AM the past 2 nights with no naps during the day. My husband has been to the ER, our regular doctor, and a surgeon the past couple of days with one NASTY infection. Poor guy!

I still managed to get some sewing done though, here are my newest diaper covers:

Si's new longies and tonight's project

A high school friend of mine knitted his pants. We did a trade, I sewed her a diaper and she knitted the pants. The diaper cover is the newest addition to my Etsy shop.

My current favorite picture!

Another Etsy Sale!

I just got my first sale of something I had already sewn up! yay!!! i checked as well and 13 people have added my shop to their favorites. Its such a confidence booster, I'm fanatic about checking who "hearts" me, ha!

Katrina's Quick Sew

Man, she wasn't kidding when she said quick sew. I traced the pattern, cut everything out, and put it all together in under 40 minutes! This particular cover is made out of fleece.

Sewing Craziness

My sewing room is a mess. I've been trying to clean up stuff here and there and sewing up projects I've had laying around for quite some time. I sewed up some fitted diapers I had cut out for Si (my son) when he was younger. Not quite sure what I've going to do with them yet, might put them on my Etsy site or use them as examples when I do my coth diaper talk.

I'm getting more interest in my team diapers. Hancock fabrics has a sale on their sports team material through Sunday so I can order a whole bunch at one time, yeah! Then I just have to sew 'em all up and be back to work full-time next week. Good luck Amber!

Today, I also tried out a new pattern I bought from Kayla's Cloth Kits for a one size pocket diaper. It's made to be used from newborn all the way up. Kind of bulky for a newborn but I think it will work great for Si because he's kind of in between sizes.

We took Si to the doctor's today for his 6 mo. appointment. Our nurse was so impressed with my cloth diapers she brought in 2 other nursers. When the doc arrived he just rolled his eyes and took another patient while we chatted, ha!

Etsy Update

Wow, so my Custom Sports Team diapers are really doing well. I've got 4 orders in the hopper! Sweet! People can also add your shop and items in your shop as favorites. I've got 8 people who have done this to my shop. Makes me feel good about what I am making. I've got some more projects in the works but have to go back to work tomorrow for the first time after surgery, yack! Good-bye sewing time!

My first customer!!!

Whoo-hoo! I just got a note from a customer wanting one of my Rivalry Diapers! She wants Oakland A's on the outside and the Boston Red Sox on the inside! I've only been online for not quite 2 days, yeah!

It can't get any cuter than this!

Ok, so I apologize to all you CD moms of boys. I PROMISE to make something equally cute soon. But, for now you can drool at the cutest diaper cover yet!

I'm a Guest Speaker!

We've got a local nonprofit organization here that assists nursing mothers, called Milkworks. They offer lactation consultations, classes, mom's groups etc.

WELL, they are having a cloth diapering event on Saturday, July 12th from 10-11:30 AM and I am on the panel! I'm so excited! We will have a little run through the week before but if you are in the area consider attending. Husbands and children are welcome, the event is free!

My new Etsy Shop!

So after last night's sewing extravaganza I put all my projects for sale on Etsy. It's kind of like eBay for all homemade items. Take a look!

Last night I finished 8 nursing covers, 2 wetbags, one all in one diaper, and one diaper cover. It was a pretty successful evening but have more I would like to get done. Sleep is first though, I'm SO TIRED!
