I started cloth diapering around this time four years ago. I never imagined my cloth diapering adventure would be as interesting as it has been. I went from not wanting to use cloth diapers, to buying them, and then making them for my little ones and for other babies.

Recently, I’ve been asked what I love and hate about cloth diapering four years later. Here is what I came up with. [Read more →]

Serged or turned and top-stitched (T & T) fitted diapers? Have you ever wondered which one is better? If you’ve been cloth diapering for a long time, and have tried many different styles of diapers, you can probably come up with a fairly long list of pros and cons for each type of diaper.

Have you tried washing your little one’s diapers with soap nuts yet? I have. Actually, I’ve been using them for at least 3 years now.

When I was pregnant with my second child more than a year ago, I ordered two Chelory Wool-In-Two (WI2) diapers without inserts. I ordered the narrower crotch version because I was planning to use it as a WI2 only and never as a cover over fitteds.

A few weeks ago, I received two wool dryer balls from Someday Sarah in exchange for some mama cloth. The Someday Sarah wool dryer balls are made differently than most dryer balls out there. The outside of Sarah’s dryer balls is crocheted with 100% wool yarn, and the inside contains wool sweater scraps. Sarah makes a lot of recycled wool soakers, so she has quite a few scraps. I think it’s great that she figured out a way to use those scraps instead of throwing them away. [Read more →]
