Getting to know PhineasGrace
What got you started in selling items in your Etsy shop?
Following the birth of our children my good friend and I started making many products for our little ones that we either just couldn’t find in stores or quite simply weren’t happy with the commercially available options. It wasn’t long before we had friends, family and a network of other moms we knew encouraging to sell our products and so PhineasGrace was born.
How did your shop name originate?
Phineas and Grace are the middle names of our children.
What is one thing you wish someone would have told you when you started cloth diapering? I wish someone had told me how very important gussets are for keeping the messes in the diaper.
What is your favorite thing to do when you’re not sewing/working for your shop?
Being physically active, whether it is a swim, bike or run when I’m training for a triathlon, a long walk with the dogs or running around the park with my son, I am always on the go.
What is your current favorite item in your shop, and why?
My current fave is my newest product the gusseted pocket diaper. Not only are pocket diapers easy to use, they are versatile with your ability to use more or less inserts for day or night time use. With the addition of a gusset this pocket diaper keeps even the biggest messes in.
How long has your shop been open?
My Etsy shop opened in Oct 2009
Personal bio:
My name is Alex. I’m 28 years old and in the final stages of a PhD in biochemistry. I am married to the man of my dreams for a little over 2 years now and had to the most wonderful little monkey man 15 months ago. Since my grandmother taught me how to hand sew at the age of 5 I have been in love with the hobby and ‘creating’ projects ever since. Having a child had given my sewing a new purpose and renewed my passion for handmade goods, especially those which are sustainable and help keep our plant green for future generations.
Fluff-a-Rump Giveaway details!
(Drawing to be held Oct 6th, 9pm PDT)
This week, Alex from PhineasGrace is giving away one gusseted pocket diaper (your choice of size) with an outer waterproof layer of PUL and inner layer of stay dry microfleece finished in coordinating soft fold over elastic with polyacetyl snap closures. Insert not included. Retail value $22.50. Open to all countries - free shipping to USA and Canada onlyPocket diapers are the easiest and most versatile cloth diapering option on the market today. Stuffing the pocket diaper with fewer or more inserts allows for customizable absorbency and quicker drying time than an all in one since the inserts are removable for washing/drying. Once stuffed it is as easy to use as any disposable diaper, perfect for those reluctant parents/grandparents/daycare providers. Want to reuse the shell? Simply remove the soiled insert, lay a new insert topped with a fleecy stay dry liner and use it as an all in 2 diaper. Add to that the unique feature of the PhineasGrace pocket diapers, gusseted leg openings which keep even the biggest of messes in and you have the perfect diaper. Our diapers have a nice trim fit while still having a large size range thanks to crossover snaps at the waist and additional snaps on the arms to prevent wing drop.

Personal bio:
My name is Samantha Levesque and I have been married to my best friend Patrick for just over 8 years. Together we have 3 beautiful daughters and one baby boy (so far). I used to be a Manufacturing Engineer, but soon after my oldest was born I couldn't wait to come home to her. So once our second one came along, I decided that it was more beneficial for me to stay home with the kids than to work outside the home. I wanted to reduce our monthly budget and got into cloth diapering. I discovered I really enjoyed manufacturing my own diapers and wanted to share it with others and that is how NorthernMom Diapers & Gifts was born.

Getting to know Colibi Creations
What got you started in selling items in your Etsy shop?
I started selling online through discussion boards, and wanted something more shop-like, without having to spend hours setting up Zen Cart
How did your shop name originate?
In the 90s, a friend of mine saw the word in Europe and we stared to make word games with it. Then I chose Colibi as my username on a few boards. And after a while it became an obvious choice, as it is easy to pronounce in English and French.
What is your favorite thing to do when you’re not sewing/working for your shop?
I love reading, I am a compulsive book buyer. I also love to sew for my family and friends. Lately I have an urge to sew little girl clothing.
What is your current favorite item in your shop, and why?
Right now, I have 2 : http://www.etsy.com/listing/55097980/large-waterproof-wetbag-in-red-flames AND my new trainers : http://www.etsy.com/listing/55096211/large-waterproof-pull-on-trainer-minkee
What is your favorite material to work with?
I love bamboo terry and hemp fleece, they are buttery to sew, and Procool Jersey for thin, breathable, yet stay-dry diaper inner

Getting to know Betriska
What got you started in selling items in your Etsy shop?
I was selling my soakers and other items on eBay when a friend recommended Etsy to me.
How did your shop name originate?
It's a nickname for a nickname. Beatrice was switched to Betriska by a friend and I'm the only one!
What is your favorite thing to do when you’re not sewing/working for your shop?
Those are my favorite things to do. So if I'm not knitting or sewing something for my shop I'm knitting or sewing for gifts or for myself.
What is your current favorite item in your shop, and why?
My latest pair of handknit soakers are my favorite item in my shop right now. They are autumn colored - Pumkin and Black - and knit with a fairisle stitch!! They are also a larger size than I usually knit. And the 100% wool was a dream to work with.
What is your favorite material to work with?
My favorite materials to work with are as natural, organic and premium as I can find. Knitting - I love wool. Sewing - I adore fleece.
How long has your shop been open?
My shop opened in February of 2007
Personal bio:
When I first opened my shop I was living on a lake in North Carolina. I have knit ever since I can remember and so my shop is dedicated to handknits and what I can sew for people who love to knit! I have
designed a bag to carry small knitting in that I make from premium upholstery fabrics, so that you are never without your knitting!
In 2009 all three of my daughters were married. One in January. Another in April. The last got married in August and in September of 2009 I came to Hawaii.
I now live high-up on the volcano, off grid and using solar power for lights, a generator to charge the batteries if the sun isn't shining and propane to run the fridge, the stove and heat the hot water. I blog about Life on the Volcano and what I'm listing in my shop at blogger.
I spend my days with the wonderful man who brought me to Hawaii, sewing, knitting, reading and listing at Etsy. It is a good life and I'm happy to announce I now have a cloth diapered grandson to knit soakers for!

Getting to know Beat's Boutique
What got you started in selling items in your Etsy shop?
I really started my shop with the intention of selling crocheted items, but quickly became obsessed with making things related to cloth diapering! I'm a stay at home mom of 4 (soon to be 5) and was looking for some way to earn a little extra to compensate for my fabric addiction :)
Where did your shop name originate?
I actually created my store when I was pregnant with my daughter Beatrice. She is named after my husband's Auntie, whose nickname was Beat. I really liked that as a nickname, thus Beat's Boutique.
What is one piece of advice you wish someone would have told you when you started cloth diapering?
Pick a system!! I'm cloth diapering 2, and I have such a variety in my small stash that it's kind of chaotic and time consuming. My son is the easiest, with him I just use prefolds and fleece or wool covers. They work perfectly for him. But my daughter is a heavy wetter, so I'm constantly trying different things with her. Mostly pocket diapers.
What is your favorite thing to do when you’re not sewing/working for your shop?
Relaxing and watching television with my kids.
What is your current favorite item in your shop, and why?
My Out of This World fleece soakers! My husband helped me with the design, and they were a lot of work, but I love how they turned out! I plan on doing other appliqued designs in the future.
What is your favorite material to work with?
I love fleece! I had been picking up remnants for years without having ideas of what to use them for! So I was more than thrilled to learn about fleece soakers!
How long has your shop been open?
I started the store back in 2007, but never actually stocked anything until this past June.
Personal bio:
I am a stay at home mom to 4 (5 on holidays and summers, and due with my last baby in April!!). We live in a beautiful and remote area in the Northwoods of Wisconsin. I occasionally teach English courses or workshops part time at the local community college. When I'm not busy (haha!) I love sewing, crocheting and knitting.
