Diaper Swappers

mamabearoftwo · 07-10-2006, 04:22 PM

What kind of fleece to I ask for at the material store if I want to have a dry layer between baby and diaper at night? The exact words you use is what I will ask for.

I am not a sewer. I have seen too many nightmare posts about FB and it is cheaper to use what I have!

TIA,

When my little was on antibiotics, they gave him diarreah (I know that's not spelled right, but I'm having a brain fart) so I went to JoAnn's and bought plain ol' microfleece. I bought it in a light color so I wouldn't have to deal with any bleeding of colors. I cut it into the right size and they are wonderful!

So just ask for microfleece and pick a color!

Microfleece. I know that it doesn't shrink, but I always wash them before constructing my dipes so they are ready to go when the diaper is completed. I prewash the darker colors too and I have had absolutely no problems with color bleeding at all. Another fabric that others swear by is suede cloth, but I've never used it.
