Diapers

I've switched to cloth diapers pretty much. I bought a bunch of cheap, made in China pocket diapers off eBay. They are very brightly colored. I like them ok. They are very simple to use, but they are quite bulky. I also would like some more, different styles, that sort of thing. I've started making some with my mom. To actually go out and buy cloth diapers is a ridiculous expense. they are like 20 bucks each. Crazy. They come in all sorts of cute and luxurious fabrics and are made in the USA and all that jazz, but really, I can't afford them. After all, this is supposed to be saving money. So Rather than stock my diaper bag with name brand diapers I have decided to make my own. I sew, a skill I am glad to have, but rarely put to use. I wish I had more time and hands so I could do the necessary work required to make them awesome and perfect, but they are, so far, good enough.

I think I need to make a trip to the thrift store for fabrics.

That is pretty cool, I must say. And a little flowered butt is cuter than the standard store bought diaper!
