Friday Fluff Talk: Frugal Diapering.

Trying to save money by cloth diapering?
Being "frugal" is the best way to save money.
If you happen to sew, or have someone who can sew for you, you're in luck!
I've always loved this free pattern from Ottobre Designs. You could use recycled fabric from around your house or buy it new.
Tshirts can be sewn into prefolds or fitted diapers.
Wool sweaters? They can be cut up and made into soakers or longies.
If you knit, there are you can find free patterns too.
Receiving blankets can be used as flat folds.

Brushing up on frugal diapering can also help you incase of emergencies.
I was once at the Emergency Room with Brye and didn't bring enough diapers. I surprised the nurse (who could only find a newborn diaper) and used a hand towel as a diaper. In a true emergency, I have read online where you can make a cover from a plastic bag.
You can also save money by using cloth wipes. They don't have to be big and fancy. When I was pregnant, I would buy baby wash clothes on sale, or as discount stores.









Just to clarify, the links mentioned in this post are sites that I've either used or found interesting. You can find different ways of making diapers by searching for things like Free Diapers, Free Patterns, Recycled Butt Sweater. . .
