Another few questions...

[rainbowtastic]

So, as per suggestion, I've decided that the fleece I have would be best suited to being the inside of the pantyliners. That said, I want to get some hemp to go inside of the heavier pads, as well as a layer of fleece at the bottom for extra absorbency just in case. Does anyone know of any places that I could get hemp from for relatively cheap? I found hemptraders.com that gives you basically a yard of hemp scrap for $3, which I'm probably going to do, unless anyone else has a better suggestion. How many cuts of a pattern would you expect to be able to get from a yard of hemp? I plan to put 1-3 layers of hemp into my heaviest pads, and if I assume correctly, a yard should be about 36 in x 44 in... if my pattern is 5 in x 8 in, that means I should be able to get 35 cuts out of a yard of hemp?! Am I right, or am I completely misleading myself?! That sounds wonderful!

Also, I'm going to use flannel for both the outside layers. I'm getting "fat quarters" off of flannelworld.com, which are 18 in x 22 in. Assuming my pattern is no larger than 5 in x 8 in, that means I should be able to get just about 8 cuts out of each... which sounds great to me, since each fat quarter is $1.99! I am getting a few cute patterns(so I know which pads are heavy, light, and medium, since I'll need all three for the next few months) and solid colors for the opposite side too, so that they are coordinated!

I am so excited!!!! So yeah, if someone could tell me if I'm headed in the right direction(bottom flannel, fleece, hemp(1-3 layers), top flannel), as well as other things to consider, that would be excellent! Thanks!
