How do you manage to keep blogging every day? I can never think of enough interesting things to say each day to keep a blog going. I'm not a writer, I don't do well putting deep and meaningful things into text. I never kept a diary. I suck at writing letters.
I'll try, though. Here goes nothing.
I tried making a cloth pad last night in the style of lunapads liners. I forgot, however, that sewing flannel on the bias is a huge pain in the butt. I cut out my top pieces at an angle on the old pair of pants I was chopping up, to conserve fabric, and ended up with a twisty, bunchy mess when I sewed it together. I think from now on I'll stick with cutting up the receiving blankets I got at walmart on clearance (5 for like $2, that's alot of flannel).
I can't wait till I have the money to buy some nice ones online. They sell lunapads at the hippie store I frequent (all natural shampoo ftw), but they're like $14 each, and I can't even afford to spend $5 on one, much less $14. Maybe I just need to save up and get a serger?
