Questions about Prefolds

I have made a few prefolds for a mate who is pregnant. They used flats for their first child so are interested in prefolds when their new addition is little.

I haven't actually seen a prefold used on a baby. I have just heard about them here and then went exploring for how to make them. Can someone please post a pic of how you fold the bottom corners before it goes on baby? Or if you don't have a pic, just an explanation. I think i have it worked out (practising on a teddy) but want to make sure i am doing it right.

I have another mate who just had a baby and is interested in trying cloth, and so i thought i would make her a couple. I am using bamboo for the absorbent bit, but am getting low on bamboo. Do you think if there was a seam in the bamboo (two bits joined together to make the length) that was within the liner, it would annoy baby?

I am doing flannel outside (two layers) with 3 layers of bamboo in the middle section. I'm just kinda playing and will get feedback from the parents.

The bub has a blister they think is from the disposables, so i don't want to do anything to put them off cloth, but would like to get her the nappies asap and can't get more bamboo til the end of the week.

cheers,

Kate
