I'm not planning any kids but I still thinks it's a great bag. Yours looks well done-I do know what you mean by being impatient at the end.

They've given up trying to do cloth ones whilst away, especially when camping (!!) but it is possible to get biodegradable disposables which is what they use now when they're on holiday. Waitrose stocks the "Nature" sort and Natural Collection has other ones. http://www.naturalcollection.com/natural-products/Kind-to-Nature-Kind-to-the-Skin---.aspDaisyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00275774175643207235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13686975.post-1157696609151098482006-09-08T06:23:00.000+00:002006-09-08T06:23:00.000+00:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13686975.post-1157665068801247872006-09-07T21:37:00.000+00:002006-09-07T21:37:00.000+00:00I love your blanket, the colors are vibrant.

I made a sort of cot-sized blanket which is still useful as a sort of lap blanket on the sofa.<BR/><BR/>Well done on going for green nappies. I used them too and couldn't believe the choice a couple of years ago, I think it's even bigger now. I particularly loved Tots Bots and Kissaluv and found www.kittykins.co.uk really helpful. You'll feel so pround of yourself and that little (or in fact quite large and well cushioned) cloth bottom will look so cute.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12895985573831346825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13686975.post-1157602497880795382006-09-07T04:14:00.000+00:002006-09-07T04:14:00.000+00:00Delurking to say congratulations on your little be...Delurking to say congratulations on your little bean!

The local council gave us vouchers towards the cost, and IIRC if you bought your own, they would make some contribution to the cost.Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17220703355730854289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13686975.post-1157572164734301072006-09-06T19:49:00.000+00:002006-09-06T19:49:00.000+00:00Way to go, deciding to try cloth!

I admit to having given up on cloth altogether about a year ago, but that's forgivable considering my personal circumstances (having my son ill from complications of an e. coli infection that had nothing to do with cloth diapers) but they are really so much nicer. I did use them for quite a while. Chinese prefolds were the best thing I tried. I never bought the fancy stuff that's out there though. Are you going to knit soakers?

I don't remember what other names they go by)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13686975.post-1157549054726832702006-09-06T13:24:00.000+00:002006-09-06T13:24:00.000+00:00Living in the UK, you have some of the best cloth ...Living in the UK, you have some of the best cloth diapers available. I truly love Tots Bots, but only ever had a few of them, between exchange rates at the time, and shipping, it made more sense to buy here in the USA (or make my own)<BR/>I cloth diapered all four of my children, but I agree about travelling. It only took ONE trip where we tried to use cloth... we never did it again, and would always buy a pack of disposables instead.<BR/><BR/>Have you knit any wool soakers yet? They are the best diaper covers :) So quick an easy too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13686975.post-1157546340447396492006-09-06T12:39:00.000+00:002006-09-06T12:39:00.000+00:00The nappy bag looks beautiful, and the baby blanke...The nappy bag looks beautiful, and the baby blanket can be as large or as small as you wish. If it is small, the baby will grow out of it quicker, but then might use it for a doll or teddy bear.<BR/><BR/>Lovely blog.<BR/><BR/>~firefly<BR/>http://scrumptiousliving.wordpress.comfireflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13131938008456230814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13686975.post-1157541830598362942006-09-06T11:23:00.000+00:002006-09-06T11:23:00.000+00:00I used a combination of disposables and cloth diap...I used a combination of disposables and cloth diapers when may kids were babies. I remember buying an extra drying rack because I could be washing up to a dozen nappies a day. <BR/>The baby blanket is so gorgeous, especially the colours. It will be worth all the effort, because baby can use it for years. Till today, my kids like to drag out their baby blankets for play or as a lap blanket. Maybe we're blanket people :)opportunityknitshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07117079481971682582noreply@blogger.com
