Or
Yet another way to use prefolds.

Recently, I needed just a little extra in the night dipes but didn't want either microfiber or hemp. So I cut up a regular CPF into four. Since I don't have a serger or a sewing machine, I blanket stitched the raw edges, which took about an hour. This is what I got - yes, ugly, but it works, it's cheap, and I didn't have to leave home. :)

Looks great! Nothing like not having to leave home, or use paypal! CPFs are very versatile!

I think they look great. You're so creative.

They look great, actually! I just trifolded my preemies and used them as doublers for the longest time, but these are probably a bit more absorbent and easier to use (no floppy sides). :)
