The passing of another World War 11 Veteran

I am currently with family in Toowoomba for my stepfather's funeral on Friday. He has been very ill for some time, and doctors thought in January he would not see the week out,but he came home (Caloundra) and my mum nursed him full time until Sunday when he reached up and managed to give her a hug then just went to sleep.
I was with Mum from Sunday and then brought her to Toowoomba yesterday. I should be back at the weekend for a while so if anyone is looking for me I will be checking emails when I can.

Sale items now listed

All for sale items have now been listed on the Cloth Nappies Made Easy Forum Market. They are there until Friday and this is the last time they will be listed anywhere. There is hook and loop tape, snaps, FOE, and other stuff. You do need to join the forum to see the rest. I have nowhere left to store leftovers so grab yourself a bargain now before I get tired of falling over it and dispose of it into a skip.

The last of my nappy making odds and sods

I am still madly sorting out cupboards and cupboards full of bits of "stuff", not just nappy making fabrics but also dress fabrics, craft bits and pieces.
There is no way I can sort it in time for listing at ozebaby during the hunt so I have decided instead to list it on the Cloth Nappies made Easy forum in their new market section.

There will be coloured touchtape, snaps, bamboo, and whatever I find. Some will be odd shaped pieces of fabric, some dress lengths.At some stage there will be some great wool bargains. I won't know what it is until I list it, so will not be available any other way than on that forum.
You need to be a member of that forum to see the lists, and I have to say the offer of a free Cherubs Kiss nappy as a prize during March is a great incentive to become a member.

A word about preloved KK nappies

If you are offered or are selling a used KK please be aware that minkee KKs are not true Night Nappies.
Some may have had a layer of PUL in them and could be used overnight but most were made simply as fitteds. Minkee, although close to waterproof, does actually need a cover if there is no full layer of PUL inside.
KK (KeesterKover) Night Nappies are those made out of windpro or 300wt fleece, which is the majority of those made; I only made a limited number in minkee.
Some new fleece KKs will hopefully be available in the not too distant future.
So fleece KK's are Night (and day) nappies; Minkee KKs are Fitteds, and can be used during day with or without a cover and at night with a cover.
Also there have been several boosters sold with KKs over the years, the style of booster will determine its age.
If you are unsure about how they work by all means contact me via the Ozebaby Possum Pouches store.

Nappy Hunt time again


So here it is.
I did say the September 09 hunt would be my last but I need to clear out the remaining odds and sods from my cupboards so am taking advantage of the nappy hunt to do that. I do have longies shorts and soakers to list but also will be progressively emptying my cupboards throughout the month and listing anything I think people may be able to use. Prices will be very low but remember if you are a hunter there is a further discount.
Register for the hunt now if you have not already done so,at the diaperdecisions.com site ( make sure you register for the NAPPY hunt, the other one is the US hunt).
My listings will be on my ozebaby store-link at right- and the icon will be very easy to find, one to help you boost your icon count with no effort.
My prize is a pair of longies and matching beanie.
Also check out the forum Cloth Nappies Made Easy, link at right. This is a very new forum which I just joined in the hope it will allow me to just have one nappy forum to visit instead of several. It is very new so remains to be seen how it shapes up but the webmaster is a good friend of my DH and very interested in the future of MCN so I think it will be well run and informative once it gets plenty of members.
