    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??

    Yes I think micro terry and flannel would work well

    Just be wary about how many layers you put in there. Maz had an ebay nappy made from 6 layers of flanelette that took forever to dry apparently.

    That massive spotlight that I *think* is near you had a lot of flannelette on the bargain tables last I was there. $4/mtr, I think, probably because near end of winter?

    ETA: Whoops. Snugglybean had too much Moet and didn't read the dates. Sorry!
