Why I Stopped Selling Cloth Diapers

If you’re wondering why I haven’t been making cloth diapers for sale anymore, you’re not the only one.  I’ve had a lot of wonderful customers contact me asking when I’m going to start making cloth diapers for sale again.  Those of you, who know me in person, know how passionate I am about cloth diapers.  I can talk about cloth diapers and anything related to cloth diapers for hours.  However, when it comes to making them, I prefer to design them rather than to sew them.  I’m always curious about the design of a diaper and will constantly come up with prototypes. Maybe it’s the engineer in me that always wants to know how something works and how it can be improved.

Another reason for wanting to leave diaper making behind is that I miss the field of technology a bit.  I miss some of the challenges I was faced with on a daily basis. Before I became a mother, I was a Software Engineer, so the jump from designing ATM software to designing cloth diapers was a bit much for me. The truth is, I miss working with software.

Most of all, I do not want to make diapers for sale anymore because I want to spend more time with my daughter.  I already missed a lot of valuable time with her because of the crazy amount of hours I had to work.  The past year has gone by in a flash and I find myself wishing I had taken more time to play and relax with her.

So these are the reasons why, and I hope you understand…
