Ok, so here's another great cloth pad option, and this one doesn't require a serger.
The tutorial can be found here at Tiny Birds Organics and provides easy to follow instructions with photos. This is the style I'll be working on this week.
It's another easy to clean option that provides a pocket opening on the back side of the pad to allow for adjustable absorbency. It can be made with common fabrics such as terry cloth, flannel and cotton wovens. It's also a very pretty pad with the top-stitching finish.
As with the other, you can make the closure either snap or velcro.
I've also created a template that you can print to use with this pad option.
You may need to trim down the Inner Pad to allow for seams.
Feel free to email me if you have any trouble at all and I will be most happy to help!
And "Thanks!" Tiny Birds Organics for providing this awesome and free tutorial!
Love the idea of working on some of these...I hope I can find some time....if I do, who are we sending them to? Are you collecting them to send them on to their destination? Thanks for the regular tips...reminds me that this is what's going on this month!
