I got the slot two weeks ago and I still can't make up my mind about what to order! I know you ladies could help me.

I know some of you have the sherpa fitteds (just got my first one from the stocking). How have they held up? How absorbant are the OV fitteds?

Has anyone tried the fleece covers or the loveybums-in-ones?

I want to get a wool cover, but I can't decide what color. Which of these do you like best?

Lavender http://www.loveybums.com/images/fabrics_woolcolors_lavender.jpg
Lilac http://www.loveybums.com/images/fabrics_woolcolors_lilac.jpg

Or should I get an interlock cover?

Any other thoughts on your favorites from Loveybums and opinions would be welcome! TIA!

I think all three colors are very pretty. I would probably pick the jewel though. It is such a nice bright color.

Ooooh! All are pretty. But I like either the Jewel or the Lilac.

I like the sherpa and the OV. Honestly, I can't tell a difference in absorbency. When it's wet, it's wet, kwim? Maybe I'm just an unobservant dork though.

What color matches better with Miss Allie's summer wardrobe??

you sound so much like me! I actually had anna select my color when she ordered my picklepants since I could not decide. I told her to "surprise me." You could have Loveybums do that too!
But, here are my choices: Lilac, jewel, lavendar (in that order).

I have a fleece cover. I like it fairly well, but it's a bit high cut(?) in the leg, so it's tough to get a prefold under it completely. I think it would work better over a fitted. It's super soft and has held up well for the 2 months that I've had it :).

As for colors, I like the lilac and jewel the best, just because they are such bright colors. All 3 are pretty though.

I find sherpa to be a little too lumpy (in theory of course!). OV is just scrumpcious. But, I actually sold my only two Loveybums I had because they shrank a ton after the first washing and they were inner soaker that took longer than anything else on this planet to dry! I keep thinking I'll try them again in a size large and do the QD soaker.

She has some really cute appliques and decorative touches now on her covers and diapers. So, I'd do something unique if I had a custom.

Those wool colors are beautiful1 Those are Mari's colors so I'm biased! So I don't think you can go wrong with any. :)

I like lavender and lilac (in that order) for wool cover. And while our sherpa Loveybums fits DS well and is plenty absorbant I've had him in it at the most 3 times since we've got the dipe. It just not as trim as say SS SP and it just seems 'hotter' than our only other sherpa dipe. I need to find it a new home ;).

As far as OV Loveybums are concerned I think QD is the way to go. I believe QD option was only introduced at the last stocking, probably in attempt to address complaints about drying time (see above) of the dipes with sewn-in soaker.
