Love My Lady Cloth

Yay it's finally Finished!


Love My Lady Cloth Has 5 Sizes!


Mini Liner, Liner, Regular, Heavy And Overnight or Postpartum




The postpartum pad is a bit special it has an optional pocket


~ Great for holding an ice pack for those 1st few days postpartum~



A pretty stack of Regulars



Here are the mini liners


If you have never used lady cloth - I strongly suggest you try it!


Many women who use lady cloth say that they experience short cycles (Yay!) and Less cramping (Double Yay!) I personally have experienced this! When I first started I eased myself into it... I used one pad once in one cycle and slowly got up to using them full time per cycle.


But how to I wash them? You ask....
What I do is I have a zipper pouch that is my bathroom and I just pop them in there and when my cycle is finished I soak them for a day in some oxy nappy stuff, then rince them in cold water pop them in the washing machine on a normal cycle and then either hang them on the clothes horse or in to the dryer they go.


What to make them out of...
I used flannel for next to skin fabric for the first ones I made and I have just discovered velour - Now that’s bliss for the Lady Parts ;)


I use one layer Zorb2 or 2 layers of Zorb or Microfiber for the absorbent layer, For Liners I use two layers of flannel.


Then to back them I either use PUL or Anti-Pill Polar Fleece.


And resin snaps for closures.

If you read my last post you may now laugh......

Why is that when I have the best of intentions for my blogging to be more I fall into a blogging hole????

Well this weeks to do list.....

I'm re-doing the pictures for the Summer T-Shirt Pattern in preparation for the release of the Infant sizes in that pattern! Yay!

I'm going to start doing the digitizing of the larger sizes of the Little Day Out Dress!

I HAVE to finish of the instructions for the Jacket Pattern that I have in the works and get it out to my testers for the 2nd round of testing! It's looking really cute :)

And I'm going to be starting a sewing book .... I've had this in my head for a while now and after almost 2 years of broken sleep (My dear son has just started sleeping through the night) I am now getting a good night sleep and feel up to writing! Plus I would love to do a feature in a sewing mag... Now it's on my to do list! Any thought on what mag?

Ok so I love to look at pics on Blogs and here are some for your viewing pleasure ;)

These are PJ's for DS they are The Summer T-Shirt with long sleeves and the yet to be released Love My Little Leggings featuring a Monkey Tag from the tag Co-op on DSD! I think I'm addicted to tags :)




These sandwiches were for the last Play Food swap that I did on DSD! They are all done in the hoop on my embroidery machine and I digitized them! I'm thinking of adding these to my store ;)






These cute overalls I have been in the works for over a year, I thought that I only cut them out slightly bigger, but when I sewed them up they fit my DD who is a year older than my son but they fit him perfect now, they hug the hips so there is a 70's vibe to them that is sooo cute!

And this would have to be my favourite thing that I have made in ages, It's a 3 layer Twirly Whirly Dress out of Patty Young Interlock, I'm usually not into these sort of prints but I had seen it made up and thought I should give it a go... At $23 a meter I was a hesitant to cut into the fabric to start with but I am sooooo happy with it but what is even better My Daughter always wants to wear it she loves it!





Matching Leggings



I'm hoping to do a post once a week - Now don't laugh ;) So if you have a sewing topic that you would like me to cover let me know!

Happy Sewing

OK it's time to be more committed to this blog!

I've been away with my family for the week and it was a great week away we were down at the beach - But it rained all week, but we still had a great time! When I find the camera lead I post some pics.

I've been working on some new boys patterns which I should have some previews in the next couple of days! (I'm a little excited about this!)

Plus I'm thinking I might do a technique Tuesday? Thoughts, ideas?
