Little Moose Diapers

I have seriously neglected the blog....but with good reason. On feb 17th, we were blessed with a new baby. Elijah Kell was born by repeat section. He weighed 9#, and needless to say, life is just beginning to be balanced again.

The shop is reopened to custom orders in May. If you are interested in some Prefold Trainers, I suggest you get a slot now, while they are still available. I have 6 dozen prefolds I am prepping right now, and my goal is to have them sewn into trainers by the month's end.

Coming for the month of June is a new item - Little Moose Ones...a one sized diaper designed to fit from approximetely 10 pounds through 30 pounds...WITHOUT the use of snaps...these one size diapers are perfect for the family with closely spaced children.

Happy Diapering!

Lots of Recycled Wool Longies are coming

STORE UPDATE - I have only 2 more pair of Newborn wool longies to sew, and then all the ones I had cut will be completed. Hopefully I can have them all added to the store by the weeks' end.

The longies range in size from newborn to 36months. Since I cut these in batches by color, here's a list of the colors/shades for these new wool longies:
Red
Brown
Dark and Light Brown Stripes
Orange
Dark Green
Black
Sage
Bluish Gray

So basically, they will comprise of lots of boyish, or neutral colors. I do have many, many more wool sweaters I have yet to cut (they are felted though). Those colors vary (lavender, dark purple, blue, pink, green). I'm hoping to have many more pair done by the months' end, as well as a few other items to list, including:
Prefold Trainers
Diaper Covers
Terry Cloth Trainers
Wool Wraps.

Since the baby is due February 22, I'll be taking the month of February and March off for recovery (I have csections) and for our 'Babymoon'. I will not be taking any custom orders during this time (although I do hope I have the energy to work on a few projects).

Happy New Year!

Fleece Longies

First, may I apologize for my incredibly shameful absence....I've been here, and feeling well, but have been super busy with sewing, homeschooling, growing our newest blessing (coming in February 2010) and living life!



Now, on to the diaper stuff...I have just finished 11 pair of fleece longies. I made these longies with fleece from Malden Mills (mostly Windpro, but the lavender ones are made using 200 wt fleece). Malden Mills makes excellent outdoor fleece which is used by many well known retailers including LL Bean (also a Maine company). The Windpro fleece longies I offer are made using a variety of weights of fabric (some heavy, some light), but all have DWR (durable water repellent) applied, making them essentially bulletproof.

Longies make an excellent choice when you are trying to meet 2 goals at once. They offer your little one the cloth diaper cover solution you need, as well as providing a pair of pants. Fleece longies are a great option if you are leary of the care needed when using wool. They can be laundered with your other diaper items, or with your regular laundry, if you so choose.

Have a Blessed Christmas!

Custom Orders List

I have had several custom orders recently. I will make an honest effort to update these projects once a week, say Thursday or Friday.

Works In Progress:

Snap In Inserts to fit Sugar Peas Covers
10 Waterproof Trainers
Pair of Replacement longies (the others didn't fit)
Set of 5 Covers and 2 AIOs - a trade!!!
An AIO and a Cover (for a blog review)


On hold until items are recieved:
Set of 10 Prefold Trainers Conversion
Set of 6 Gerber Trainers Conversion (adding snaps to make changes easier)

I do hope to list at least 10 more pair of longies before the end of the month, so if you would like a custom order, contact me now with you baby's measurements (Take a tape measure (or a string, then measure that). Measure child's waist at the belly button, leg length from between her legs to her ankles. And then, from her bellybutton down through her legs, and up to the mid back wherever the diaper stops. Measure her with a cloth diaper on.)
