The day has arrived.
As my sewing supplies and workspace have taken over the whole house, increasing each year for many years, it has become time to move it out; so I am taking a 2 week break ( at least) from all sewing to relocate my workshop.
During that time any KK orders will be placed in a queue but will not be able to be started until the move is complete as all machines ( and I have a LOT of machines) are being packed up in readiness.
Knit orders are fine anytime as I knit at night, moving all has to be done during the day.
Ceejay packs are on hold-these take a very long time to make and are really done for advocacy only , and at the moment I am just unable to fit them in.
There may be many trips to Lifeline/St. Vinnies or an occasional package of fabric etc may turn up on the specials page of the possum pouches website as I previously spilled over 4 or 5 rooms in the house, and I won't have this at the new place; so anything not used for 12 months is going out.
I will try to post here if I list anything but will not be online much as this is going to be a mammoth effort.

short break
Due to the immense popularity of KKs ( well they are the best night AIO) and the fact I try to make them available at any time someone needs one , I have been inundated with orders for them; so much so that I have neglected other things that need my attention urgently.
I am therefore taking 2 full weeks free of nappy sewing to work on other projects. I am completing all current KK orders this week . Orders may still be sent during this time and will be placed in a list, but please be aware that they may not be sewn until after 8th June, unless I get everything done faster than I am guessing.
In that time I will be concentrating on a full relocation of my workshop, as well as several other projects.
Knits are excluded from the delay, they can still be ordered at any time but there is a waiting list for these as well, however Frances and I ( especially Frances, God bless her) are getting through these quite well now.
Please email if you have any questions but DH has "suggested" that I cull my online time a little, so I may take a little longer to reply, but I will answer you I promise.
Thank you to everyone who keeps Possum Pouches going from strength to strength ( and keeps me off the streets!)
and happy birthday today to my darling d'ter who is my youngest at 33 .

Due to recent events within cloth circles which have distressed me greatly the rest of my May promotion has been cancelled.
Instead I will continue to offer the best possible prices on all my items at all times as has always been my preference.All orders continue to be accepted by email.
KK orders which are in place are being worked on this week; Frances and I are knitting as fast as we can to complete our growing list of knit orders asap.We are thrilled with our 100% positive feedback and thank those of you who are prepared to wait for us to finish your garments when life throws an occasional spanner in the works to change our estimated completion times.
Do please email if you have any questions at all.We prefer to help each person individually.

DDF @ PP
I am really pleased to announce that Possum Pouches is now the Australian licensee for Daddy Flats, created by Dawn from That Bottom Lip Designs.
These are a 2 layer flat nappy, with no elastic, that folds as easily as a trifold, simply flip to one side then back the other way and you have a flat nappy complete with soaker pad. It comes in a day version ( 6 absorbent layers) or night version ( ten absorbent layers).
I will be making these in all fabrics including bamboo.
It is planned that from early May all nappies will once again be sold from email orders at any time. This will include the fabulous KK windpro nappy for night time and/or heavy wetters; the ceejay fitteds (and pul version) for everyday, your budget nappy choice in small medium and large, and daddy flats.
Pockets, wool KKs and pul KKs will be offered only as instock OOAKs as time permits.
Mother's Day Jewellery is now listed at Ozebaby, check my earlier blog post to find out how to get a discount for very limited time only.
And last but by no means least we got our very first egg from our lovely new chooks today;hopefully I never have to buy eggs at the supermarket again.The first to lay was the one Jacob had named "Eleven".
Easiest way to contact me over next few days is via the website-I have redirected the contact email and will be checking that address a few times when possible.Orders will come to that email if sent via the site.

Happy Birthday-party time
Early in May I celebrate my 60th birthday. I am having a BIG party where you get the surprises.It will be held at my Ozebaby store and on my websiteI am starting it a little ahead of May to allow for some jewellery to be listed in time for Mother's Day.These will be at very special prices for a short time only.Free gifts too.
There will be some surprises, and some OOAK's but always in keeping with my goal to provide the best nappies to do the job for which they were intended, at the best price. More info on nappy products will be here on the blog.
KKs will be available once again by email order- I do not have stockings, random or regular; if you want a KK please email me from the site. I am slightly changing the way I accept these orders, so I don't get swamped; please check the KK AIO page for related info in the coming days. I will always try to provide you with your nappy when YOU want it.
Intro to cloth pack orders are full for May, possibly into June. A medium pack will be introduced soon.Other things in the pipeline too, more on that later.
I will be MIA over the May long weekend,when my family is throwing me a small party.
Emails replies may be slightly delayed at that time.
