one size true all in ones stocked!

we just stocked some one-size true all in ones in our etsy shop!


also stocked a couple of wet/dry bags. i'll be getting more up in the coming days.

what's the difference between a true all in one and a quick dry all in one?

a true all in one is made exactly like a fitted diaper, but it has a layer of waterproof PUL on the outside, making it as easy to use as a disposable. my true all in ones are made with an outer layer of PUL, a hidden layer of cotton sherpa, which is topped with cotton velour. then comes with the traditional quick-dry soaker. [these are better for naptime, nighttime, outings, etc]




a quick dry all in one is just a shell of PUL and microfleece, plus a thicker quick-dry soaker. these take less time to dry in the dryer, thus the name. [a good daytime diaper]




you can see the difference between these two photos. the quick dry all in one is lined with microfleece and comes with the double soaker. the true all in one is lined with sherpa/velour and comes with the double soaker. [only one size diapers come with two separate soakers].

now offering wet/dry bags!

we're now offering wet/dry bags. i'll get some stocked in the coming days in different sizes. this is an example of a small wet/dry bag. it offers an outer pocket for keeping clean items in, while the attached wetbag is for dirty items. the series of photos below shows how a 14 inch postpartum pad can still fit into a small wetbag. and as with all of our wetbags, i sew these at the top of the bag, to prevent wicking/leaking through the side seams. no need to worry about your dry, clean items getting wet. they also all come with a matching handle for hanging.

side snapping OS QDAIOS

these are some great color combos that a customer picked out, so i thought i'd post some pics of them. raspberry PUL with brown micro, aqua PUL with grey inner and dark brown PUL with ivory micro. side snapping OS QDAIOs come each come with two soakers. a small and large, so you're able to customize your absorbency in the larger sizes. the small soaker is specifically for the diaper when it's set on the smaller settings. they are 5 layers soakers, for maximum absorbency.

a note about the trimness of our one size fitteds

we are going to start offering trim fit one size fitted diapers. when i started testing our one size diapers, i had made a pattern that was trim between the legs and through the back. through testing, though, i found that some people preferred total and full coverage across the back and between the legs - being as all children are built differently. so now when ordering a custom one size diaper you can choose trim or regular fit. regular fit diapers are the ones that have been most recently sold. trim fit diapers are cut 1" trimmer on each side of the legs, through the legs and up the back. this would be best for long and lean babies. some people prefer this over total coverage. if your baby is on the larger size, i would suggest going with the regular fit.

another note about the one size diapers: some people have said to me that their children are usually on the largest setting of most one size diapers, but have it snapped down to the medium setting on mine. there is a reason for this. when testing, the biggest concern was that most of the one size diapers out there only fit up to a medium or medium long. this frustrated many people - as they thought their one size diaper would last through their entire cloth diapering venture. my diapers were designed to fit a true large at the largest setting. i believe all one size diapers should be made this way, so that people don't have to buy a large diaper if they've already purchased a one-size. that is the point of buying a one-size after all!

when choosing custom OS true or QDAIOs, i would suggest getting only PUL outers. i have sold many, many, many front and side snapping sized QDAIOs without wicking problems, but some people run into problems with wicking when it comes to these diapers. it's totally a personal preference. there is a disclaimer on each page now - so now you buy prints for these diapers at your own risk.

one size diaper covers are coming soon, with gussets. i'll be making some up soon and getting them posted.

later on this week i will post a "trim" OS fitted comparison to a "regular" OS fitted. if you've purchased one size fitteds in the past and like the fit, then stick with regular fit. if you'd like something trimmer, then choose the trim fit.

thanks everyone!

some esbasic cover and OS QDAIO pictures

we've been taking custom orders for one size quick dry all in ones for a couple of weeks now, so i wanted to show off a couple that we've made and sent out.





also, i just stocked the store with sets of esbasic covers in both newborn and small sizes. they're instock and ready to ship immediately. these covers are only $10 a piece and are sold in sets of 6 [full rainbow] or sets of 3 [you pick colors].




there are still some great one size quick dry all in one color combinations left in the store as well!

i'll be stocking some TRUE AIO one size diapers this week - these diapers are awesome. super absorbent, soft and pretty darn cute.
