the most uncooperative model

Here's me trying to capture some photos of my new creation. However, i dont think my model is too happy to work today

here's a better shots:

ally's wearing a tie dye yoga pants and she's getting creative and wore her fairy dress as a top. she might not look like typical model u see in the magazine or catologue even look a bit silly but i am happy that she's wearing mummy's creation.

2 nappies out of 1 nappy cut

I always find cutting nappies in full size is a waste of fabric. This is a good way of using your scrap fabric as well of making full use of nice expensive fabric ie printed PUL and minky when u make nappies.


This is what i get fr a 50cm x 50cm printed PUL. TWO NAPPIES!!








Basically when i cut the pattern, just cut the body and cut the wings seperately. i use another fabric for the wings section. It only takes a little more time to stitch the wings to the body but it's worth it especially when you are using a more expensive fabric ie printed PUL or minky. Dont forget seam allowance where you will stitch the main body of the nappy to the wings.







Tips of the day:
Do u find it hard to sew stretchy fabric ie PUL. i cut interfacing and stabiliser (i've heard people using baking paper too) into strips and lay it on top of the PUL when I sew. it's much easier to sew and it wont stretch the PUL.

Good Luck and enjoy sewing!!

my new hobby- TIE DYE

This is my new hobby, cant get enough of it. just love to see the colourful swirl and excited to see the outcome of mix of colours on the fabric.

bamboo velour fabric. havent decided what i am going to do with them yet.

transformed the boring white prefold and "lampin" to a more colourful fabric.

gave old nappy and clothing a new look.

i mostly use the presoak method which is soaking the fabric or clothing in soda ash solution then squirt dye solution onto the fabric.
