Finally have some nice looking dipes!  

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
After a horrible day of sewing yesterday (I ended up having to throw one pocket dipe out - it was unsalvageable) I had a very successfull day today and I'm so thrilled! I made two pocket diapers with the VB AIO pattern and they turned out pretty good if I say so myself. One with Aplix, the other with snaps. They look much better than my first couple. I think I just had bad fleece :P But these two are with suede and they're so trim. Especially with the microfiber inserts I made.

I even got two fitteds done from the VB fitteds pattern. I cut up an old maternity tee I was tired of, so the outsides are jersey, with birdseye pique on the inside. The large has a snap-in soaker from suede-covered microfleece and the newborn size (aww, it's so tiny!) has an internal microfleece soaker.

DH is on the hunt for a new digital camera, so I hope to get some decent pictures of these and all the covers I made last week, very soon!

Just had to share my elation!

Hooray for you mama! There must have been something in theair yesterday,I tried to sew and it was like I'd never sewn in my life! : Everything I did had to be ripped out or redone. Today was much better for me too.

I'm so glad I'm not alone! I get so frustrated those days that I want to pack it all up and throw it away I know I can do it, so why do I still have problems, LOL!

I have 2 of those days lately. I think I was just overly tired and not concentrating. I started back to work full time recently so I only get to sew after the kids are asleep. I did salvage 1 dipe but it is not very pretty. :LOL

Aww, you're making me feel better!

I guess we all have bad sewing days, huh?
