What Lovely Weather Dear

We woke up to another cold/wet morning.
Saturdays should be sunny. Isn't that a rule?
No? Well it should be. I am so over these gray, sloppy days. We braved a walk in the woods last week. It was a gorgeous 50 degrees. It should have been wet and muddy but it wasn't! There was still snow on the ground. Protected by the towering trees.
Had my camera battery not died half way through the hike, I would have come out of there with a few stunning shots. There was one pathway, near the edge of the woods, where the sun shone bright through the trees. Bella stopped up ahead to play with something she found in the snow. all around her the trees left a ladder of shadows that went on and on. It would have been neat to get a B&W! but the most beautiful thing about the seen was watching her enjoy the sun and the nature around her.

I am really wishing we were there today. Though by now the snow must be mostly gone. The mud in it's place.

I had a dream that I made a baseball tee shirt with this fabric





All I need is some white and yellow knit to make it. It Should be pretty cute. Don't you think?

I'm bringing the wovens back

They have a bad rap
oh yes, I am bringing the wovens back

Woven prints in last two years in the diaper world have been misrepresented. Sure, everyone has their preferences, but really when done right, woven print diapers rock.
Extraordinary fabric companies and designers like Alexander Henry, Amy Schimler, Robert Kaufman, Amy Butler and so many more.

I built my original fabric stash off of obscure fabric companies and ETSY with these companies. The main reason why I switched to knits is because the cloth diaper market called for it. I have realized over time that I decide what I create with and what I would like to work with is more of these prints. I was limiting myself with the "popular" shiz. Not that I am against knits! My fabric stash revolves around my taste. I love every single print I have, but I am limiting myself with knits and fading into what every other seller has.

So... I am going to do me. (Typed a crooked half grin) and OMG I am in heaven. Just you wait......

Getting My Sale On

All diapers listed at bubblebuttdiapers.com are on sale. $20 and under. Even the HTF Kumquat prints! and remember October is all about the free shipping!

I very much stink at blogging

I have been sewing like a mad woman the last two months. Both personal projects and diapers for sale. I am trying to work out a pattern for trainers. This project is long over due. Neither of my daughters enjoys wearing a diaper..ever.
Anyone that uses a Bubble Butt diaper knows I like em trim. So the trainers have to be even trimmer and yet effective at catching the little oops that happen.

I have also been working on clothing for the girls. I hope to make all of their spring and summer clothes.
I am what you would call pattern stupid, so I have to make all my own patterns. This has seemed to be a great thing for me. I end up with a better fit with every project and since I have learned the ins and outs of different fabrics I tend to have less adjustments to make.

As far as life, life is cold. The weekend was just lovely though. A pleasant 50 degrees and sunny. A wonderful change from the last few weeks. I was beginning to think that mother nature is not a fan of Wisconsin. I still have much yard work to get done before the snow hits. A big sorry man to the neighbor next door that mows his lawn at least twice a week and makes sure that EVERY SINGLE leaf is removed. I would rather play! Eh, the yard looks decent. The leaves haven't fallen yet so we are good. LOL Once they fall, they go in bags for the compost


As for diapers.. Here are a few on sale!

It's a Twofer!

First I would like to say, GOOD LUCK JESSICA! Her baby boy is due any day.

I have been taking it easy the past week. I love custom orders, but sometimes I need a break. I am still sewing of course. A couple of side projects for the house and a few diapers that I will hopefully stock someday. I have this thing about not stocking one or two at a time. Dont't ask me why
I really need to get dinner going, but I wanted to share a few from the last week.
