Dyed/Embellished prefolds and sets!

After 2 days of dying and 2 more of embellishing, I've finished! I am still waiting on a few things to arrive before posting my whole newborn/small stash, but here is most of the fun stuff anyhow :)

Wow, that is amazing. If you ever get in the business of making them for others let me know.

Thanks! I've thought about some type of WAHM business, but not any time soon because I'll be busy soon ;)

Oh my goodness! That is so incredibly awesome! You are so talented Mel. I think I should just bow down now. I'm not worthy. :)

LOL thanks!

*swoons* I am in CD heaven! HOW did you do all that?! Please, oh Jedi Master, tell me so I can do it toooooo! Replication is the best compliment :D

[mel7]

Thanks! I just sort of did it and it worked out, lol. Are you going make some of your own? It really isn't hard if you are a little crafty.

Okay I feel the same as red_canuck....HOW did you do that? I have the GMD orange and yellow but how did you do that exactly? I'm SO jealous!!! Mine are just plain white, boring CPF's!! :) How' much sewing did you do on those, and will the snappi's ruin the fabric?

BTW...did you buy the dye at a craft store or online?

I really may need to try this....I'm not so crafty, but I CAN follow directions! They would never look that good though! He he!

There are a bunch of threads on DS in the craft section that helped me. Basically you just prep, dye, wash 3-4x, dry, and embellish! For sewing you just have to sew around the edges of the fabric. Except the prints that had a top/bottom. Those were a little bit harder. Maybe I should make some for my LJ buddies for low cost. I wouldn't mind really, but I might be busy soon ;p
