Fuzzi Fluff: Good Intentions

Good Intentions

Leave it to my dad to let it spill. I made some diaps for my nephew. They were cute. They were appreciated. They really aren't getting used. Ugh. Apparently they aren't absorbent enough for my nephew's fire hose. I was out of bamboo, so I had to resort to birdseye from Joann (and I'm not that thrilled with how they turned out). That, and I think that the diaps were "nice" ones with microchamois instead of suedecloth as the inner layer. Sigh... I know they were appreciated, but I really hate hearing things in a round-about fashion about something that I might be able to fix.

I'm an accidental cloth-diapering mom. I stumbled on the "new" cloth diapers while on a hunt for wooly nylon thread for my serger. Then a dear friend gave us a Knicker Nappy diaper as a new-baby present. When you add all of this to the fact that I collect hobbies (and fabric and sewing patterns) with not wanting to buy a box of diapers every time I turned around - you wind up with my little misadventure.

I refer to all of this as misadventures because I do screw up, I'm not doing this "for the greater good", and I'm trying to keep this fun (because raising kid isn't always fun).

I'm old enough to remember plastic pants and jabbing myself royally with a diaper pin with younger relatives. I also remember the nasty disposables that had one-shot-to-get-it-right tabs. I'm glad that I have more options for my little girl.
