    making my own liners & wipes..

    hi all

    Was looking into making my own liners and wipes for bubs....but not sure on what material to use for each?? and where i can buy the material from? Would spotlight have material?

    I've heard that the bum creams can wreck some mcn's .so are liners a must??...is this true? or will the cream come out in the wash??

    Still learning - sorry about the silly questions!!

    Looking forward to hearing ur ideas!

    We only rarely use cream so I just use flushable liners when we do.

    I made my own wipes with colourful flanelette and white towelling. I cut out a 20cm square of each and sewed them together. They've been excellent.

    If I need to use liners I have some basic rectangular fleecy ones. They do the job just fine.
    As for the wipes, I bought them from Maz-a-licious

    bugallug- go down to your local spotlight hun and get about 1m of micro fleece. cut it in 10cm wide x 28cm long pieces and hey presto - nappy liners.
    wipes - easy also...get 1m of flannel while your at spot light and some towelling cut into approx 20cm pieces and either sew them or over lock them together.
    god luck matie and if you need any help just pm me...im more then happy to
