Janell is one of my fellow WAHMs from the gDiapers group.

Janell offers practical sewing tutorials on her blog, including making your own inserts (don’t forget I sell diaper fabrics for those who DIY) and making your own slings.

She even took her husbands boxers and make a gDiaper type diaper out of them. Now if that is not utilising something creatively I don’t know what is :)

Check out her tutorial on applying snaps to g-diapers

TJana is one of the girls from my gdiapers group and she on her blog wrote her method for dying gPants. For those of us who bought starter kits, and everyday 6 packs, we ended up with alot of orange and cream gPants. So one thing you can do is dye them.

So check out her great instructions on how to dye gPants. The rest of her blog is a good read too :)

Chelsea Hibbards little blog is a great read. She even says nice things about my g-Flappers on there. She has some video reviews of different diapers too.

Chelsea does little give aways every now and then. At the time of writing she is giving away a gDiapers starter pack. Oh and coming soon she will be doing a give away from Nappy Shoppe!!

Cindy is one of my Canadian customers. She has a blog that I have enjoyed reading, especially the articles about her journey into the world of cloth diapering. She sounds alot like me, she has to try out all the different options out there :) I don’t know if Cindy realises it yet, but shes addicted to cloth diapers.

She also has the cutest baby!!!

Christina is one of my local customers, so I have had the pleasure of meeting her in person. She actually found my store on the web when looking for cloth diapering options for her little man who has very sensitive skin. I have since introduced her to my favourite yahoo group, the gDiaper yahoo group. I know shes a great fit with these folk because she loves being green and talking about being green.

Christina has a cute blog about living green while saving money. Be sure to check it out.

Christina also has a rockingly romantic husband. Christina was over at my place picking up an order, and she was admiring one of the diaper bags I had made, and bemoaning the fact she didn’t think she could justify the cost at this time. Later that evening the diaper bag sells, and it is the same last name, same address, but the first name is male. Also the order was to be shipped rather than picked up like Christina normally does. So that got me thinking, has her hubby gone and bought it for her as a surprise???

Well I put it in the mail and 2 days later I get an email from Christina. Apparently she was out when it arrived, so her hubby emptied out her old bag, and filled the new one and hung it in the spot where the old one used to be. She said when she got home she walked past it a few times before she noticed! She was thrilled when she saw what he had done. Now isn’t that one rockingly romantic husband??? :)

I have a bag in this fabric too, just a different style.

I met Ashley Beal on the gDiapers yahoo group. She is another WAHM like myself who loves to sew.

I stock her mama pouches. They are incredibly cute double pocket wet bags with seperate zippers for each pocket. One side for clean and one side for dirties.

Daisy is one of my customers. She has blogged about my g-flappers and I have used photos of her son at 6 months old as my model for the gPants on my site.

I like to read Daisy’s blog as she blogs about parenting issues, and she is not afraid to talk about the tough issues like immunisation and extended breastfeeding.
