fleece liners

[alliejane]

Reading through all the messages about nappies (its a brave new world for me, this being my first time), I noticed a few mentions of people cutting out their own fleece liners. I've just bought some Tots Bots and will need to get liners. If I wanted to cut my own and save a bit of money, where can I get the fleece, or what sort of fleece material should I look for? Thanks!!

you can buy fleece from any cloth shop by the meter.

i think it's supposed to be polyester fleece, but ime that's all they have anyway!

I've heard of people buying a cheap fleece blanket from Dunelm Mill or similar and cutting that up. I bought a metre of fleece from a big fabric store - much cheaper than buying from nappy sellers IME.

Get 100% polyester as some are acrylic/polyester I think. I just got it from John Lewis. Used the 'tots booster pad' as a pattern and drew around it onto a bit of paper to cut the rest out from.

I got a big 100% polyester fleece throw in ikea for £2.90

Thanks everyone. This site is brilliant! Its so great to be able to find out about these things that I previously never had any cause to think about!
