Having trouble finding fabric!

[ss_storm]

I'm planning (note: "planning" ) to make some cloth nappies, I'm a bit of a dunce when it comes to fabrics, sewing etc so am hoping I can stumble my way through it and baby will have a decent nappy at the end of it!

I'm having trouble finding terry cloth fabric though. Can't seem to find any in our local fabric store (maybe I'm just not looking hard enough...), and this morning have spent a couple of hours googling to find online stores (plenty of terry cloth for sale in the US! ) but any I have found that seem to be what I'm after don't have any stock...

Anyone willing to share the places they buy their material from? Online stores would be great as I don't have to venture outside

Not sure about terry cloth available online as I use bamboo (sorry I'm a bamboo snob )

You may be able to get it from bamboofabricstore as they also sell organic cotton

I know spotlight sells it if you are in the traveling mood (probably not at your stage in PG I'm guessing).


I'll have a tart about and see what I can find.

Have you tried nappies covered? I can't remember if they had terry though...

NO bamboo in Australia until the end of May due to a co op flop. You'll only find brown or black.

Double sided terry and single sided is available for $20m from spotlight and lincraft

but honestly...for that price Id be getting me some bamboo hon

Keep an eye out on ebay too. There was some hemp terry on there a little while ago that worked out to around $10 a metre. Not sure if you want that much (there was around 7m), but you might find what you need.
