Goth Girly Covers and Order Status Update

First the update: Alison1L got shipped out yesterday. Kiddo353 I have 6 trainers done for your replacement. Pink Cupcake Cafe, I have 2 out of 3 of your last trainers done for you.

I finished the punk princess pocket diaper for the WAHM Nation collaborative, and even got 2 new covers done to list in my store. Shown below, as a link, are the 2 covers I just finished this morning. They are a single layer of PUL (one is hot pink with the pink plaid skull and crossbones print and the other is purple with the purple plaid skull and crossbones print) and bound in soft black fold over elastic, with matching black snaps. Shown here on the middle rise setting.



Thanks for looking.

It's been awhile

My deepest apologies to all my followers. For awhile I had a temporary job and was up and out the door by 7am each day to catch the bus and arrive by 9, and then would skip my lunch and catch the bus home at 5, only to arrive home at just before 7.

Happy to announce that that job is over. I can get back to sewing and finishing up what I've got.

First, I have 10 replacement trainers for Kiddo353. My deepest apologies that yours were screwed up so royally. I have 2 done, and 3 more prefolds prepping in the wash, and another prefold cut out waiting to be sewn.

Next, I have a total of 7 for Alison1L, I have 5 done, the 6th pinned together, and the 7th cut out.

Third, I have the pile of alterations on my table for Cat-Eyed Girl. I would say I am about 40% done with these.

I need to stock for the Cloth Diaper Nation congo, grand opening May 10, just in time for Mother's day. I am listing a pink goth girl pocket to go with a punky pink and black goth girl collaboration with Fluffy Baby Behind, Beaucoup Bows, and Squishylicious. I hope I can get it all done in time.

Oh, I almost forgot. Carly linked me on her blog for LilBirdieBottoms. You can see a picture of her adorable daughter wearing the pocket diaper I made that matches her cute shirt and adorable hair bow from Dana at Beaucoup Bows.

Finished, FINALLY

Finished the order for LilBirdBlue, and for Shaan102106. Now the only orders sitting in my apartment are the half-finished order for Kiddo353, and the half-finished order for PinkCupcakeCafe. Also just received an order this week from Alison1L. Well, and Nate's Wedding Suit. And guess what? My fold-over elastic finally arrived today from Canada, so I plan on getting EVERYTHING done this weekend and shipped by Monday.

I'm waiting on some gently used diaper service prefolds I ordered to come so I can sew them into trainers. Oh, and another announcement. I've also joined the Main Street Congo on Hyena Cart, and hope to be stocking some trainers there starting April 3rd. So, when you get a chance, check me out. My section is empty for now, but not for long. And I will continue to stock my covers and pockets over at my etsy store, too, so don't worry that pockets will no longer be available.

And just because I think it's frelling adorable, I leave you with a picture of my latest set, the purple goth girl set. It is a lavender PUL pocket diaper with contrast tabs, and then another pocket with the lavender and camo plaid skull print. Also, each diaper comes with your choice of insert, whether it be a 4 layer microfiber insert, or a 6 layer cotton birdseye insert.



I've also started doing hand-appliqued wool OSFM covers.

Weekend Update

I had a VERY productive weekend. For starters, when I checked the mail on Friday, my Fold Over Elastic from foeyourdiaper arrived, so I was able to finish the order for Shaan102106 and Suzanne. I also finished LilBirdBlue's last 2 trainers, Teliza's 6 size small, and started the orders for Dana of Beaucoup Bows and Jennifer of Pink Cupcake Cafe. I also managed to finish the Clown Fish diaper, which I will be listing later this evening. I missed the post office closing by 15 minutes yesterday, so the finished orders will go out Monday.

Teliza, 6 size small made from 6 what I can only imagine are TotsBots Contours.

LilBirdBlue, the last 2 of her order

Shaan102106, all 8 of her trainers, size medium,

Suzanne, all 6 of her order, 3 size small & 3 size medium, no PUL, and no print fabric, so just fold over elastic.

Dana, of Beaucoup Bows, sent me 9 premium size prefolds to convert to size medium trainers. Here are 2 of them, minus snaps since that is the last thing I do (or rather, make my DH do) before they go out.

Jennifer, of Pink Cupcake Cafe, ordered a total of 12 pocket trainers, 4 size medium, and 8 size large. I have finished and snapped the 4 mediums. I am waiting on more fold over elastic (because apparently I can't calculate yardage, or I'm just an idiot) to do the 4 larges for her daughter, and I need more white PUL to do the 4 larges for her son.

Work completed this weekend

- Finished and shipped 13 of 15 training pants for LilBirdBlue - DCN 0303 2460 0001 0974 0452 (will be finishing the last 2 as soon as my PUL gets here from Kids In The Garden)

Back on the grindstone

So, I am 6 prefolds into Lil Bird Blue's order. I was planning on having them done by now, however, it seems that just when you feel more on top, the Goddess decides to throw you a curve ball. I spent the better part of last week camped out on my poof trying to keep the little bit of food I'd eaten where it belongs. I am still not 100% better, but feeling ok enough to continue, finally. So I am going to finish Lil Bird Blue's order, and then start on the 8 prefold --> trainers for B Balker. After that, I have CreativeMotherUK, and a few I am still waiting on receiving.

Custom Finished

It took all day, but I managed to finish the custom order for PookaPooka on Etsy. She sent me 6 premium size unbleached Indian Prefolds, and I turned them into 6 size medium training pants without PUL, but with decorative prints. The trainers are bound with fold-over elastic edging, and snap on the sides for ease in removing after a messy accident.


And if you are interested in these and have prefolds to convert, please see this listing and contact me on Etsy. I'd be happy to work something out with you.
