I'm excited to finally introduce my luxuriously soft cotton sherpa and velour wipes. Sold in sets of three, they are perfect for a baby's bottom, for bath time, or even as facecloths. They will be available in my store tomorrow (Monday, July 28) in five colors (chocolate brown, baby pink, baby blue, lavender floral, and pink floral). Here's a preview:

A New Etsy Cloth Diaper Member

I want to give a rave for a new diaper team member, the shop is www.acherubskiss.etsy.com and is a wonderful site for Chloe Toes diapers, and all things baby. Kim has always enjoyed sewing and is a wonderful designer of clothing in her own right. She has taken a Chloe Toes and added the cutest ruffles you have ever seen. Kim's Mom has been her business partner for over 10 years (her name is Jolly) and she designed an adorable dress to showcase these ruffle diapers. Please give her site a look and enjoy the beautiful talent they share, I have enjoyed knowing these ladies as friends and now I am so happy they are joining the efforts to help cloth diaper babies everywhere,

Bamboo

I have just finished up some bamboo fitteds I have had sitting around for a while. These all have a dyed outer layer, and turned out simply beautiful! I am having a hard time not keeping them all. Here's a preview of what will be listed over the next week.

Los Chiquitos Diapers now on Etsy

Very cool to have a blog on cloth diapers where we can all contribute. I hope this helps enlighten people to cloth diapers in general. I know and some of you ladies know me. I've been selling diapers since 1999 on my website, www.loschiquitosdiapers.com. Last year I was thinking about closing the store and not doing it anymore. Well, what a difference a year makes. Now I'm excited not only that I've learned to update my own website but now I can have already made diapers in my store. Something I wanted to do on my website but couldn't.
Yes, MY Store! Cool , isn't it-having your own store online. What I really love about Etsy is that the listing are low, the item stays for 3 months and everything is hand made. I have been able to branch out on more than diapers because of the store. I've been doing other sewing and its awesome to sell it. I mean I can't keep it all, can I?

Anyway, I am starting to put some 3 packs up in my etsy store. I figured a lot of mamas and papas want to save on shipping. Also, a good way to get started on cloth diapering and not have to wait on custom orders.
I have my latest one up in the Chiquitos diapers section. I hope to be able to put a pack up at least every 2 weeks.

Happy Diapering,
Erika
