Behind the scenes: Unpacking a quilt exhibit

Cloth diapers2

Pretty in pink

Angela is so teeny tiny that the 42 super-cute cloth diapers I made her are WAY too big. They’re for babies 8 to 20 pounds and at just under 6 pounds Angela is swimming in newborn clothes and has no hope of fitting into the diapers. I didn’t make any diapers in the newborn size […]
