Going, going....
And the decision has been made. Gulp... The feathers will be frogged and I am lengthening the stole. When I saw this the decision was easy. Tonight will be the night. I've still got a bit of rose left in the bottle, and together with some Japanese nuts that will ease the pain of all that hard work being undone. But hey, I had also made a mistake in the feathers, which will now be taken out too, yeah!
Nothing to show for my diaper efforts. I spent a lot of time making a proper template in cardboard, which saves a lot of time when you have to draw out the shape on multiple layers of fabric, and reading and re-reading the instructions until (a glass of rose later) I finally got what she meant. I'm trying out the Wee Weka AIOs in the S/M size. It is slightly bigger than the Jobbes pattern I've been using, so baby S's butt should be sufficiently covered this way. And guess what? I thought I had loads of fabric for diapers. Uhm? Where? I do have some jungle fleece which I've already cut up, but because another fleece blanket meant for diapers has become such a treasured member of the family on outings to cover baby S's legs or the grass so we can have a picknick, I can't cut it up... I'll have another rummage through big S's T-shirt collection (next SnB meeting will hopefully deliver a few more T-shirts as well, yippy!). For the AIOs it is advised not to use cotton on top (hmm, rules out T-shirts then, bummer), but fleece, so maybe I could also attack one of my old fleeces I never wear... And then put some nice embroidery on it...
Stop it!!! You're making more work for yourself!!!!
