Yep have to agree there, adisonsmum, the fleece won't work as a booster It is stay dry fabric, so it either makes nappies waterproof (if on the outside and thick) or keeps baby's bottom dry by drawing the wetness from the skin into the absorbent nappy underneath. It doesn't actually absorb anything itself.

Works great as stay dry liners though!

bummer! wish I had have known that 3 hours ago lol .. good thing I only got 1/2 a metre and it is of a colour (navy one side - pink the other) that I can use to make something else with. I see some couch cushions coming up for a friends birthday pressie! .. thanks for letting me know

So .. what can I purchase to make extra boosters with ? and where do I get it ?

[johT]

you can use it for liners still!
id say hemp or bamboo from bubba earth or something?

Sounds like bonded fleece if it's one colour on one side and another on the other. I'm 100% certain but I don't think it would work as a liner as the wet wouldn't be able to pass through as easily.
But it is gorgeous fleece by the sounds of it.....would make great cushions!

looks like the fleece will be only good for cushions! .. ohh well.

thanks for the link to bubba earth .. I will get to ordering some microfibre towelling and some hemp fleece in the next few days.

Have a good night.
Thanks
