My favorite part of any project is the design phase. I love refining an idea and turning it into a doable project, Laying out a pattern, making a prototype, noting where the flaws are and reworking it until it is just right. that whole process is just incredibly fulfilling to me. When I am designing I feel like I am doing what I was born to do.
Right now I am designing my own unique diaper pattern. I have made three versions of the diaper, all are usable, and will stay in my stash and be used, but they have some flaws, which I am working on resolving. Once I get the kinks worked out I plan to make a set for a friend who is expecting and is interested in cloth diapering. then I might try selling some.
If you use cloth diapers, what do you prefer? fitteds and covers, pockets, lay/snap in inserts, or all in ones? The pattern I am making could be used to make any of those options, I wanted to go with the pockets but I am having a little issue there, so I may try a different rout. or I could do all of the above, once I get the kinks worked out of the pocket style. When I get around to it I will take pictures of the diapers and post them. maybe. I plan to anyway.
If anybody ever reads this, I would love to hear from you in the comments. Is there something that when you do it you feel completely fulfilled? what is it?
I have tried to comment before, but haven't figured out how until now. I think this time I finally figured it out.
ReplyDeleteYes! I did! I figured it out! I commented! Woo hoo!
ReplyDeleteBasically, (for anyone else who wants to comment but hasn't figured it out yet) you type your comment. Then, before you click [Publish], you click the down arrow for the list of choices next to "Comment as." Choose something you have. I chose Google because I use gmail. It took me to my gmail password page, and I signed up for blogspot using my gmail. Then it posted my comment. All future comments are much easier because I now already have a blogspot page.
