First I want to say a big thanks to Shannon and Katie!! ((And a gal from my PR))

And also I'm making some diapers for Kieran out of old tshirts (Sewing Prefolds) and needed a snappi cause I dont like the pens we have(they aren't the baby safe kind) so we went to our local mom store and they were $2.10 for one, dh was going to pay with his Secured Card from our bank(different one then got screwed over) and the owner of the store said just take it, its my good deed for the day, she gave it to us! Then we decided to look at the thrift stores in town and call the children's resale stores in our area, 2 of the 3 said that they were wipped out of all cloth things(one of the thrift stores said the cleaning people take cloth diapers to clean with ) and the other one said they had a couple covers. We go and its a Bummis cover for ....$2.99! A freggin steal!! and she had a snappi for $0.99 so we got 2 snappis and a cover for $4 something after taxes!!

Good things happen even when they seem like they wont. Thanks ladies

Heres some pictures of one of the diapers, I'm sewing it by hand so its not the neatest thing in the world

Start, penning it together

Where I'm at now, its almost done

And Kieran's first Fluffy butt...its a receving blanket way too big but it works lol(saving our few sposies for night, but a lady in my pr is sending some of her size 1's that don't fit her son anymore)

And her cover, its alittle boyish but a cover that usually costs $12.50 for $2.99 can't beat that!!

A door closes and another opens... I'm glad things are getting worked out for you. The cloth diaper you're making looks fine to me (I'm like the least domesticated person ever, so to use a needle and thread for their intended purposes is something I can greatly admire lol).
