I've been making stuff!

And it's taken me nearly all day!


My pile of 6 piddle pads - waterproof pads for use in carseats and pushchairs during potty training (also good for catching spills from drinks cups and ketchup sachets ;)). Constructed from a pretty fleece top layer, a prefold nappy, a cut up waterproof (and machine washable!) table cloth and a cotton backing sheet. 4 in girly colours chosen by my potty training niece. 2 in farm pattern chosen by DS - how can 2 children raised in the same environment, with access to the same toys and experiences revert to the stereotypes so easily?

And some home made san-pro, more delicately named mama-cloth in america ;) These are still in need of tidying up, hand finishing and popper adding, but this is the general idea. These are fleece topped and bottomed, with varying inserts of terry towelling, microfibre and flannel.

Sheep pannel on the bottom (so I know which way up they go)


The top



will post more pics when they are tidied up and look like what they are meant to.
