    I know no-one has been in this thread for abit but thought i would give it a go....

    i want to make some pre-folds.. and these are the materials i have currently...

    nappy flannel, blue flannel, and some micro-terry towelling, do you think with a backing of terry towelling then the flannel against bubs butt these would work as prefolds??
