Small Successes Vol 28

One.
I got my workroom cleaned up and my maternity clothes put back up in the attic space. I can actually see the surface of my work table for the first time in months!

Two.
I finished reading The Phantom Tollbooth to Sebastian and Gabriel and managed to find a few minutes here and there to turn a piece of Una's embroidery work into a cushion cover for her bed.

Three.
I finally found the courage to start using my cloth diapers yesterday for the first time. I used disposables for Gemma's first two weeks so that I wouldn't have extra laundry to deal with, and I will still use them for outings. I like the cloth except for the fact that Gemma is so little and the cloth diapers so bulky! It looks a bit funny, but then I suppose that is what I looked like 45 years ago--and I was nearly two pounds lighter!

  2. Dear Nadja,
    i would love to use cloth nappies full time again, but we have such a lack of water situation here. i cnnot justify all the water usage.
    I love to see them on the line to dry....I really miss that.
    God Bless

    I did post on my comments about a tutorial on the little dolls. i will do it but after I finish the Silk marionettes.

  3. You know--when they are tiny you can use the unfolded diapers (you know the thin old-fashioned plain ones?) and fold them around in lots of different ways so they aren't so bulky-won't be long until that ends and you need the thick ones big time though. A nice little snappi and that sweet little patootie is good to go! :D
