Haven't done this in a while...

Time for stash pics again! All the diapers but one are clean, so why not, right? ;) The stash has gotten so much smaller since I last blogged it, about half the size it used to be!

First up are my fitted diapers. The left row and the ABC print diaper are ones I made from my own pattern. The two middle rows (except the striped diaper) are diapers I made from the Fattycakes pattern. The striped diaper is a First Class Baby. The right row is a Pattynaps (cow print) and a Hidden Pearl Creations.


Next up are my AIOs and pockets. On the left are two Dream-Eze AIOs and a medium Robin's Fanny Fluff fleece AIO. The other diapers are all GADs (Green Acre Designs). These are by far my favorite pocket. They are built well, fit great, and the business is run by a wonderful WAHM! What more can you ask for?





We are currently using Pocket Change pockets for our night diapering system, but plan on switching back to fitteds and wool once I get some decent night-worthy diapers sewn up. These are a decent diaper, and fit forever, but aren't a favorite here.







These are our poor, neglected covers. We don't use these ones much anymore since we use wool covers at home, and use pocket diapers when we're out. We keep these on hand for times when the pockets are dirty and we've got to go out but don't want to use wool. There are two Bummis Super Whisper Wraps, and one Bumkins cover.





Last but not least... All our wool! We have two pair of knit longies (blue and camo pairs, knit by me), a pair of recycled longies, two pair of shorts (blue/green pair and orange/brown pair both knit by me), and a camo colored soaker knit by me. Our "night wool" consists of a babyology soaker, babyology longies and an aristocrat soaker.





Not pictured are the prefolds, as well as one of the Pocket Change diapers.

Prefolds, part deux.

Here's the pics of the prefolds I dyed! I love how they came out! They were all regular size unbleached indians, and I did two prefolds per package of Dylon. I ended up with 4 each in turquoise, burnt orange and lime green. I did two each in poppy red, yellow, olive, and green. I also had a plain lap tee that I dyed turquoise, no pic though.

All the colors... Green, olive and yellow I dyed in bags, the rest I did in tubs. Didn't stir them much though, so they're a bit mottled too. Not bad though, I like that look.


And a couple action pics of the lime and the burnt orange.

More Dyeing fun!

I've been meaning to do this for months now, and finally got to it today! Not wool this time, but Kaiden's prefolds! These are all regular size unbleached Indian prefolds, dyed with Dylon. I did two prefolds per pack of dye, and the colors came out great. The turquise, poppy red, lime green, and burnt orange I did in tubs, while the green, olive and yellow I did in large Ziploc bags. The ones I dyed in Ziplocs came out mottled, but I really like the looks of them.

Who says prefolds have to be boring? Currently, they're in the dryer, so pics of them completed and dried will come tomorrow. Eventually I'd like to stencil them, but for now it's a nice change! To tide you over, here's a pic of most of them soaking. Kudos to Erin for the Ziploc bag idea!

Talk about a big stash...

I decided to take stock of all my diapers the other day. I won't say out loud how many I have, but you're free to count them up if you dare. ;) What I have, with the exception of a few he'll be outgrowing soon, are all dipes that should fit him right through potty training. Even with a stash this big, I've still saved several hundred dollars compared to just a year of using disposables! Go cloth!

First up, all my fitted diapers. These are diapers that require some sort of cover over them, either wool, fleece or other form of waterproof cover. My personal favorite with fitted dipes is a wool cover. Breathable, low maintenance, and best of all, cute!

Next up is my prefold stash. Some find these diapers too much work, but they're an awesome choice, and great to have on hand even if you don't plan on using them. I have a dozen each in premium, regular, and preemie size indian prefolds, and eight infant size chinese prefolds. Also shown are a dozen birdseye flats.

Twins do tie-dye!

Yesterday afternoon I went over to Mom's, and tie-dyed some prefolds with them. (For those that don't know, prefolds are the "old fashioned" cloth diapers) I bought a bunch in a recent co-op on the Pin from All Together Diaper, and now have all sorts of fun stuff to dye!!

In any case... Tori and James did an awesome job, and had a total blast doing it! They didn't get nearly as messy as I thought they would either. lol Here's the end result...

Tori's is on the left, James' is on the right. Both are bleached premiums.

Here are the other two that got dyed yesterday. Both are unbleached, one is regular, one is preemie.

And here's everything I still have to dye! Add to this about a dozen more OC Dream-Eze that I haven't ordered yet... Wow!
