    Default Opinions needed on a couple of things....

    Ok I have put 4 Bummis Whispher PUL covers on layby for a starter and I was wondering would it be worthwhile buying some Wonderwraps or just more Bummis?

    What is a *soaker*?

    What do you think about nappie covers that people make themselves and sell like on Oztion and they got good ratings?

    I want some Bamboo boosters, anyone got any they wanna sell me? Or can you buy bamboo cloth from SL and cut yaself?

    I got 24 terry flats, would another 6 be worthwhile buying?

    Soakers are woollen covers. Can you knit or do you have a relative who knits? In the knitting section of this forum there are knitting patterns. I love our woollies.

    I've never seen bamboo at SL. There are some online stores that sell bamboo and hemp. Off to find some links.

    Can't think of any other stores atm

    I think I just had 24 flats to start off with. I'm struggling to remember LOL. I'm glad you've gone with the PUL covers. I really struggled with PVC and fluffy covers from Kmart/Big W. They were horrible. The fluffies didn't fit properly and the PVC was just gross. Once I found NC and PUL and woollies I never looked back.

    Snaps Aust sell Bamboo Fleece.

    I dont think you need any more covers or flats for the moment. See how you go, they both dry really fast

    If you're alreday getting the bummis wraps - I'd just leave it at that for the time being and see how you go, I had a wonderwrap which I don't use because I found it too bulky. And the PUL covers dry quickly anyway.

    If you buy bamboo fleece you will have to hem the edges, which means *sewing* they just have to get zigzag stitched around the edge in a rectangular(ish) shape though so not too hard (unless you can sweettalk someone you know with a sewing machine or even better overlocker to do it for you!)

    I have seen those knitted covers on Oztion and stuff, they look cute!

    Yeah I wouldn't buy any cover from BigW etc. They look yucky

    I will have a look at those links for bamboo boosters later on. Thanks!
