WoHB - snoozywun!
Kazbah - organic clothing in size 2 - have a look at EARTHLINGS, it's a nz store, everything is fair trade made and organic cotton.
SAHARA BLOOM makes kids tees in size 2 out of bamboo.
GAIA COTTON and PURE BABY are others that come to mind. The section that does PUREBABY 3 - 7 i have a hard time finding online, but i know it exists.
EEJ - was it you after Mazalicious covers?
try Clothiebumz, the mazalicious store on the WAHMNAPS site, nappy bucket, and whatever Caddie's store is now called. Caddie's Little Wonders used to be on WAHMNAPS too.
Mummy n Me is on WAHMNAPS too.
wotbb: she is still asleep from 5.30pm and it's 8.30pm now, (OH NO) got her up at 6.30 but she kept falling asleep. so i am dreading being up with her from midnight to dawn. she's still got her imse vimse trainers on, we don't use them as night trainers, so this will be an experiment. (not of my choosing).
Was it you RAY RAY, asking about nappies with a velour inner?
be careful you understand the difference between microFLEECE and microFIBRE.
microFIBRE - absorbent fabric, used for boosters, sewn in absorbency
microFLEECE - stay dry fabric, used for inners of pockets, ai2's, aio's and some night nappies
easy to get the two mf's confuddled.
Kitten - i would love to see pics in the gallery, of your butterfly mcn collection.
whoever got the cherub's kiss custom, Brigsy? woot! (although you lost me, when you said "my first customer" - is Lesley buying something from you?
if you are buying something from Lesley, she is such a perfectionist, you won't be disappointed. She wins prizes for her quilting, smocking, all that fancy sewing stuff - and is very nice too. She came to a Nappycino meetup in my city last winter - it was like meeting MCN royalty LOL. (pity Honeyboys didn't suit bilbs). Also Tikki (from ozebaby was there). i love meeting wahms.
Ali - keep going with the bedrest hon, you're doing SO well. i hope the Anzac Day adventure won't be too much to get over.
methinks all those couriers are kept in business by all our combined fluffy addictions! it is a bit like xmas when it all arrives! who doens't like opening pressies? i think that is the thing, it's LIKE getting pressies. and when you're a mum, GIVING OUT energy constantly, it's nice to GET SOMETHING, and that's the thrill the fluffy mail gives us. well that's what i reckon. LOL.
i scored the cowboy MnM :D was the one i was after :)
I have moved all of Jacks nappies from the change table into a draw.... to hard to change him on table with nappies on it...and to much stuff under it....
WOJB ~ Maz LL NN / Maz elmo cover
Kitt3n - I know that brand of bags, they do jeans and clothes too. But I don't see anything on their website that looks like what you described... but they have a MACRAME bag :o hello?? Their kids clothes are cool, reminds me of the hippie stuff my mum used to make tho!
um, nappies. yeah, it's raining, it's pouring, it's hailing, it's blowing a gale and I don't have a dryer. And DS decides that he's going to poop in a nappy for the first time this month today. Can I take nappies to the solarium to get some UV light onto the stains?? Is that mental? LOL!
NaNa - even if its raining, there's still UV out there to de-stain nappies!
lol nana not mental at all, i actually asked a while ago if it would be a good idea to get a UV lamp for winter here :) still thinking about it!!
hmn i just googled them, my bag isnt on the website at all, maybe its old stock? i did get it 1/3 off :) still exxy had to cash in mothrs day and bday pressie for it!
i took it out yesterday afternoon and i am so happy with it :)
gigi - ok will endeavour to do a butterfly stash pic for you!!
fluff - feels funny calling you that!! yeah i have moved mine around too, to try tomake them all fit LOL!
Thank You Ali!!!! I am so pleased! mwah!
Kaz the mnm stocking was def more girly. I'm after clothes too. I am sick of pumpkin patch and the usual mall stuff. I want some unusual things for winter. I love the dress I have from caddie and I would love a llamajamas jumper dress!
Gigi- nope not me after the covers. I don't use them. I'm an AI1 or 2 or pocket girl! ;) But thanks
Kitt3n- u like butterflies also... would LOVE to see ur stash... cant wait to get my new Maz NN purple butterflies... LOve them...
Maz- Lovingthe preview of my stuff on FB... Ur a Gem...
been raining here so no naps dry...cant wait to get all the new stuff so i dont have to resort to a damn sposie wth the end result being a nasty rash... :(
Jess is all that stuff Maz is doing for you!!! How fantastic!!! Lucky you. Must be the boost you need?
Ha Ha, I did not know that it was the Maz from here who made the covers (Duh) - Oooh, so very clever, wish I were so clever. Are most of the nappy stores owned by Mum's? I assumed they were all just companies. Thanks all, I did find that store in the end, yay. Truly, this new little nappy world has opened my eyes up. There is such a demand for everything MCN, if I had the drive I would invest in a MCN nappying production because if so many stores are selling out of all sorts of things so fast there is obviously a need, must be a whole bunch more obsessed mummies out there - And now I'm one of them . . Oh dear, DH will not be pleased :D
Sarah - we are all very obsessed ... a dream of mine would be to just have a fluff store .. just fluff and accesories .. nothing else ... pity .. IRL there is demand , but not enough for it to take off :(
Sas - yup Maz from here is the famous Maz covers lady - very talented huh!! Gotta love her work (plus she's awfully modest too!!)
I think most people in the MCN business - whether making, selling whatever - are all WAHM's. Some people outsource their making to China and that - but the hard to get ones are still made at home, which is why they are so hard to get.
WOTB's: both still in night nappies. Still a bit shirty at DH after last night (see facebook for more details) so he can change them.
So I didnt end up fluff-buying but I did get 2 pairs of fishermans pants off Ozebaby for Jett and Ripley lol
Im still trying to decide if I was AIOs or fitteds for River..............definately going to have some Widdlewuns in the stash if I get lucky.
WOJettsB - Lucious Lullabies w/ Maz polar bear cover
WORipleysB - Snoozywuns w/ Maz 2up turtle cove cover
WONewbiesB - BBH w/ Maz minky spinder cover
Mel hun hope things are better this morning... - i know its no its not much but hey at least ur DH will change naps... Mine wont... he does nothing for the kids... i was shocked to see him laying on the lounge with DD last night when she woke up screaming (1st time ever and she is almost 1).
Kitt3n Thanks for the FB add... off to check ur pics out... lol...
Have 5 friend requests but i dont know who they are cos no message with their BB name... LOL... Glad u added a message...
Well i almost had to resort to a sposie last night but i decided i could just use the green kids and change her later... well i didnt and it actually held up well almost... just a little dmp round the legs not too much (think mainly cos she climbs up in the cot and falls on her butt ... lol
I think all the fluff talk on my FB has opened more people minds up to cloth... have had several people comment on DD's fluff ask questions etc... even if there not converted its still great to make them aware of MCNs... (so many people have no idea... they still think cloth as in flats and pl;astic pants. )
Kitt3n - there's a nappy bag on the Lucky Brand site that looks kinda like you described. But yeh, exxy... very pretty though. I think by the time I find a nappy bag I like/can afford/suits cloth, DS will be fully TT... but that could be a WAHM project for me maybe? Or someone with more time and sewing skills than me, anyway. Have you seen those bags that are baby carriers as well? Clever!
A couple of the inserts from our BumGs are so stained, and I have no idea what from, but weeks of sunshine hasn't budged them. It's not panadol, and DS hasn't pooped in a nappy much this year coz he prefers the potty, so it's all a bit weird. Oh well, it's not like anyone actually sees them.
Can't wait for Mazzy-mail! DP's such a grump today, it might even cheer him up a bit. It would want to, I got it custom-made for him!
WOAB: um.... mind fog... what did I put on him half an hour ago?? um... a nappy?? sheeeesh.
nana - hun pm me which one, i cnat see anyback packs on there?
lea - i would love such a store - there is one opening on sydneys northern beaches very soon!
wohb - kissaluv / llamajama sorties which are long on her LOL
:
ummmm, i'll just play the "i'm so used to typing customer at work that the word just flows from my fingers" card! i meant to type CUSTOM - oopsie! i'm not talented in the ways of sewing anything at ALL - ask me to make invitations to weddings, i'm there, but sewing - nah not at all (ooh, and i can usually write a half decent poem!)
not much happening here nappy wise - mum bought out the last big amount of Gremlin washing last night so we sorted stuff into drawers by size - she's HOPELESS - it was either get the giggles at her vagueness or crack the sads at her! my back is hurting now though - we have a concrete slab and i spent too much time sitting on the floor! packing hospy bags tonight or tomorrow i think - i'm in denial that it's going to be happening soon, but given one of my belly buddies popped during the week, and another has discovered her waters are leaking this morning... i think i have the essentials i need now (don't want to take pretties to the hospital - icky tar poos, plus i don't want them lost!).
Maz - i love the custom flats - can't wait to comment on FB - but too many of my extended family on FB don't know that the Gremlin is pink - it would be a bit of a giveaway! thanks so much hun
Ok how do i go about getting a custome made??/ d oi just use their contact us part?? I am so in love with some of the butterflies (flutterbys) naps that i have seen and i want more, more, more... Kitt3n ur naughty... putting all those pics on FB and being my butterfly MCN enabler...
BG- Had no idea u were keeping gremlins sex a secret... how on earth do u keep that to urself... I was so excited when i found out i was having a girl... and OMG ur pregnancy has gone fast... i still cant believe it was me in your shoes last yr... WOW the yr has just flown past. Ur Mum sounds like a gem...
WOTB- DaddleDoo....
some wahms will have a custom slot available on their site, Jess. Otherwise just ask?
Thanks NaNa- I am loving the butterfly embroidery on the back.
Those of you that have HH pink ribbon nappies, Make sure they are clean and dry for tomorrow, Marydean is having breast surgery for her funky boob. I have Em's ready and will be specifically asking DH to put it in her daycare bag.
it's only from a couple of them now - i think it's filtered to the rest of the family by now. one Great Aunt (that i'm very close to) is adamant she doesn't want to know - i am "friends" with both her sons on FB so i have to be careful not to let slip! not that it's a big drama if they find out, but to have kept it from my Aunt through soooo many phone calls and things, i don't want her to find out now through my cousins - it would be really hard on her i think! plus it's nice to have a little secret from a few people...:
it's been interesting keeping it secret from some local friends though - some know, but a lot of people in town don't - so i either have to dry all prewashed stuff inside at home, or send it to mum's!
Jess - go through some of the gallerys in some places and see whats around then just ask them to custom it for you, with your fav. colours and material and set to your DD's size :)
I have 2 GF's coming soon, i got an email from Nikki this morning to say they will be finished tommorow :dance: so excited :) Nikki did me a custom bumblebee and a custom white tiger, so adorable.
As for me i have ALOT of fluff coming this week, 12 so far geez no wonder im poor this week ;)
WOHB - Sposie atm, i only have 3 fluffys and there washing cant wait for my other 12 to come.
Sorry I've been slack in here lately. My visitors are never ending...
I had my Mother visit for a week, and once she left my sister and niece arrived. Now they went home today, but on Friday my IN-LAWS are arriving. YAY. Not :rolleyes: Hopefully when they go home I can get my house and routine back into order. Trying to keep my house respectable at the moment is like :wall: with all these people coming and going.
While my sister was here she added about 5 items to my already mile long list of things to sew. I barely get time as it is and NEVER get time to sew for my own child just everyone elses.
I missed the stockings as well, hopefully I can get on for Arimeh's to try a widdlewun for the first time.
Kitt3n - do I have you on fb? I'd love to check out your stash everyone is raving about but I can't for the life of me remember if you're on my friends list?
:redface: oh behave ladies....im getting embarrassed :redface:
rain rain...woo hooo!!!!!! finally I dont care that i have a clothes horse full of nappies drying in my little parents retreat! ITS RAINING!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you can find Caddies stuff at her new online store - Millaruby.....lovely stuff...we have a few of her items here relax pants are FAB!!!! and I got the cutest little orange, pink and yellow striped dress for Vy.
oh and a question - for those who have side snapping BB.......do you think that the sizing is bigger due to it? I think im going to get alot longer use out of them compared to the front closure ones.
And again...:hug: and thanks to those who thought of my yesterday...my back is pretty bad and all I can say is praise the lord for SIL's who are nurses :) im atleast walking today without crying (yes it was that bad)
ok off to make tea for the hungry worms
Be good and if you cant be good.....be dame good at it :ROFL:

Of course, the starbumz really helped ;)
WoHB - snoozywun ;)
Hey kitten - are you one of my friends on FB?????
Jess I'm getting one from bundle of buns but not until the 4th of may slot! By the sounds of it Nikki from GF is a bit quicker if you want it sooner.
Maz glad you're feeling better. It sounds like your back was unbearable! Love the pics of whats coming up on FB.
I am sick with a cold again and I'm feeling really miserable. Need a fluff fix to make me feel better. I lost it at the dog and DH just cause I want someone to look after me for a change. Not that Eddie (our lab) can do much for me!
OMG how cute are the hand and feet print GF nappies... Thats so clever
very much so :)
how often does she stock? I can't find the stuff for sale ...

Maz hun - Do you need my frame :p :lol:
OMG - Only asked twice for nappies to fold this time, and here they come :lol:
WOEB: Choc Lime bubbles CT
WOSB: Pink WC
Kaz are in you in the shop site? It seems like she mainly does customs and you choose from all the different bits and bobs. But there is also the premade nappies category
um. shop site? i googled her, that was all.
Kaz - I think there is a link right at the bottom of the page which is 'Through to Shop' - you need to click on that one. I couldnt figure out how to buy for ages! Not that I've bought anything yet, all the options are too confusing for me.
Think I might need to pick one from the gallery and just ask for a duplicate!
