The best place to be born...

I am so sad that the photo didn't turn out.., oh well, hopefully we get a cute NB modelling shot in a few days!! ;)

Look at those teeny tiny leg holes.. perfect for scrawny NB chicken legs, and full bottom coverage to contain those lovely breastfed poos (or number 3's, lol).

Another big sis, lil' sis set

Two gorgeous fattycakes - small and medium. So sweet!

A new product in the ikis cloth range!

Tear drop shaped breast pads! These nursing pads are contoured, to help them stay in place, and make them almost invisible under your clothing! Now the leaky breastfeeding mumma can wear form fitting tops again, without the tell-tale breast pad 'halo'. The teardrop shape also means they are more absorbent!

I am going to give away one free set of breast pads to the person who comes up with the best (either most entertaining or most catchy) name for these breast pads. Comment away! Winner will be chosen in two weeks.

More colourful pads

Here is the 2nd part of the pad order.. aren't they cheery?! These are regular sized pads made to with the kiki pads pattern.

Cloth pad rainbow

Well, sort of! This is part 1 of a cloth pad order. These are post partum pads made with the Kiki pads pattern.

These will catch any night time flow or post partum flow - they are very generous in the front and back coverage, but with a nice contoured shape for comfort. They measure 32cm in length!

Hoot hoot, cluck cluck

This cute little set is a gift for my lovely friend Nicky. Those that know me, know that I am addicted to sewing patterns - well, napppy patterns to be exact- and I get bored of sewing the same things! For this reason I didn't make her a NB Hippy Hippy Snap or Fattycakes (although I have some ideas in the works!) This little newborn nappy was made from the Chloe Toes Pattern. I really love it for the smaller sizes - it's so fast to sew, has really clean lines and a fantastic fit - a little belly scoop that is lightly elasticised, higher in the back (great for preventing nb poo blowouts) and the front snaps are angled to give a great fit at the legs at any snap setting.

This was the last of my blue owl fabric :( I just love it.. although I do have some scraps I'll be giving to Nicky so she can make a gorgeous small nicnap to match the singlet!

Hoot Hoot: the fabric

Cluck Cluck: me at the teeny tiny cuteness of the little nappy.

Jumping on the Facebook fan page bandwagon...

I finally managed to figure out how to set up a fan page on Facebook! I published it on Sunday, and by Wednesday had 150 fans! Yay for social networking!

Click here to go to the ikis cloth facebook fan page!

So, if you haven't already, fan me on facebook. There will be speciual offers, sneak peaks and more only available to facebook fans, so if you 'do' facebook, fan me and suggest the ikis cloth page to friends!

Okay, I must go finish some cutting and sewing - it's my SIL's baby shower on Saturday and I have to get a bunch of nappies finished to give her! I am so excited, she's decided to use cloth this time round, and is having a little girl, so I get to make all girly fluff and will have a nb in a few months that I can test out new designs on in the flesh! *cluck cluck*

4 Little Fattycakes

4 Little Fattycakes! One medium All in Two (top right), two medium pockets (brown and black) and a small All in Two (zebra).

I am so sad that I couldn't get a decent photo of these, they look lovely in person! My poor, poor camera fell victim to my two year old and sweet and sour sauce :( I have asked santa for a new camera (and sewing machine) for Christmas, so we'll see if I've been naughty or nice!

Big Sis, Lil Sis

I just love this little set. Big Sis and Lis Sis.. too cute! NB and Med Fattycakes All in Twos, with microchamois inners.

Still taking photographs with my phone *shakes head*. A cute little tester went out with this lot too... something new is brewing *insert giddy evil laugh*

For Lisa

My camera has sadly died, so these photographs have been taken with my mobile phone!

My favourite from this lot would have to be the huckleberry minky with orange microfleece inner. It looks awesome!

Medium All in Two (second) available

A cute medium Hippy Hippy Snap Ai2. This one is a second due to slightly misaligned wing snaps (if you look at the picture you can see) and slightly misshapen front panel (which is not really that noticeable and not noticeable when the nappy is on). Ikis Cloth seconds are identifiable by not having a size tag.

This has a yellow microfleece inner, and the booster is overlocked with pink variegated wooly nylon. $25 (normally $31).

For Kona

Two large Hippy Hippy Snaps, in sorbet minky PUL, with pale pink microchamois inners, boosters overlocked with variegated wooly nylon.

So soft!

For Tem

Two cute medium fattycakes. Embroidery by Mel from Wrigglebots. The top one says "Born at Home" and the second one is for a little girl's first birthday :D

For Susan

Have I mentioned how much I love these little babuskas?

These owls just make me smile. The fabric is seamed at the crotch so that the owls are right way up on the front and back.

Two velour inner hippy hippy snaps. They sit a little funny off due to the minky rolling in (to prevent wicking with the velour inners), but they fit fabulously. The demin minky looks awesome with the silver snaps!

Fattycake with flakes microchamois inner. I really like this combo!

Teeny tiny and the giant!

A teeny tiny prem xxs little starter (this is just a giveaway, I cannot sell from this pattern), and because I am a bit anal about things matching, and since the rest of the nappies match, I had to make up a large hippy hippy snap in the same colour scheme! It makes the large look like a giant, but really, it is pretty trim!

These, along with the other 10 nappies have gone out to Kobi today. Hopefully the little bub will still fit into the nappy. Otherwise, it will work well as a doll nappy!

Customs for Katie

The first is a medium Hippy Hippy Snap All in Two with purple velour inner and brown dot minky outer. The flash has made the snaps look a different colour - they match the velour inner IRL. This colour scheme reminds me of the cadbury brand chocolate! The second is a medium Fattycakes All in Two, with rose minky outer, and apple green microfleece inner. I think I am going to make another one of these, but with a cherry red outer, and it will be like a toffee apple! Yes, I have just started a new diet and have sweets on the mind, lol!

Of course, once again, sorry about the dodgy photography!

For Kobi

A big custom order :D Matching nappies (large and small) for a toddler and a new baby on the way - only the new baby came early! The small nappies will not fit the 5lb bub for a little while, so I will be sewing up a little prem sized nappy over the weekend and sending them all off next week. Embroidery from Mel of Wrigglebots

For Sarah

A newborn Fattycakes Ai2 and a small Hippy Hippy Snap Ai2 with fleece outer and hidden PUL.
