competition



see info here




i made this pad (amongst a few others) before our son was born. i'm offering it up now in anticipation of a gradual reopening of girly bits to the retail public.
thanks all for your support and patience

last one for today


i painted a couple of T's to go to boys in a couple of my favourite families -

it was nice to do something again after so many years

- i still need a bit more practice to get up to what i used to but i can see my bubba's having some mama painted items real soon

hugs

a few pics






this is some of what i managed to get done during our move.

a trade with a gorgeous nappy making mama

2 post partum slots

and a couple for one of my best customers - she loves purple BV

hugs

you may wonder


why i would put a pic up of one of my worn out pads....

well this is a liner i've been using very frequently - approx 3 times a week for over 18months. i was wanting to show that even though the fabric is now deteriorating the stitching is still intact - this demonstrates why i have the confidence to offer a 3month repair/replacement on construction on all my pads -

used or not!!! smile.

bit of an update

well after 3 weeks offline i'm back
i've had a few inquiries about where to buy GB's
atm there's stock at bubsincloth.com.au - i think amy and i chose the perfect print for her store - it's metro blue.
rachel at best for baby has a large order ready to sell when she reopens best for baby.
and i'm trying to get a few other stores a small order before our addition arrives next week.
go rather slowly but still going a bit - sometimes it's just nice to sit and pin or sew rather than chase, clean, prepare you know?
hope you are all well
hugs

i *have* been working





i'll pop up a pic in the next couple of days of the wholesale order we're working on atm.


i see meg's bamboo store order is almost gone - wow you guys!!!


here's a couple of customs i've done lately


there's a black hemp silk pair with sunflowers and the *last* fairy (i'd promised this before the earlier blog post below - so again please don't ask - i've got the rest saved for ally) - this isn't a great shot - i forgot to take one after completion of thread burying and snapping.


the other was a custom with flannel top and plain PUL bottoms - i've got a stack of these cut out for bubblebubs (if vicki still wants them) that i'll puddle through over the next couple of weeks. vicki's great for NOT applying any pressure.

i've also got some BV's cut out for karen at baby soft landings to puddle through.

and some hemps for michelle at sustainable hemp.

i've also got some hemps underway for another store - with a totally gorgeous and exclusive print - i haven't forgotten you!!!


this weekend i'm working on some customs and trades to clean the slate before stopping. some really nice pads (if i do say so myself).


i'll be taking at least 3 months off - to recover, adjust and enjoy our new addition (and move). and to evaluate how to make this whole *girly bits* stuff work better for me - without adding the stress it does when one's product is popular.


have a lovely week

hugs
