Pepper Place-Inducing early births in customers

Well, I stuck to my 38-week deadline for this one, after my last full-stash order that went early. But the customer still beat me to it, and had the baby the day before I was scheduled to drop the order off. I think it’s time to aim even earlier! I tend to forget people regularly have babies before 39 weeks as all five of mine came after that, even my twins.
For this order I made something completely new. The request was for 30 bamboo flats, but after making my son a couple of traditional 60x60cm bamboo squares to trial I decided they were OK, but could be improved on.  So I improved on them-it’s sort of a smaller version of a flat in a double layer of bamboo fabrics. Heavyweight fleece on one side for absorbency and stability, and terry to give softness and the ability to use a Snappi. Expect to see a competition soonish to name them, because i’m stumped on what exactly to call them. They are, of course, one-size.

Six Pepper OSFM covers to go over the bamboo-sorta-flat-thingummys. Note two rainbow covers-this customer decided to order from me when she saw my son running around in a park in one of his rainbow nappies and fell in love with them. How’s that for effortless marketing? :P

30 Pepper mini cloth wipes, in cotton velour, bamboo velour and flannelette in lots of different patterns and colours.

And a wetbag in a rather suitable cotton outer print.

Thanks for the order J! Hope it’s all getting a good workout and you’ve settled into your new role comfortably. It was great working with you.

ecoWeekend, CQU campus, Bundaberg, 17th-18th April

Well, I have been pulled out of my little holiday with notice of the ecoWeekend occurring! This is something I expressed interest in a few months back and i'm really happy to see it happening. And with the news coverage it's been getting hopefully it will be big-if you're in the area, make sure you come along! I may even be doing a talk there, eek. It's been years since i've done any public speaking!

I whipped up a wetbag for display today in some suitably eco fabric-it's an information event, so it's a great excuse to get full demonstration stock of everything I make, especially the stuff that has been tested and made by request yet not sold online due to lack of time! Please excuse the terrible picture, my camera is off being fixed so I had to make do with the video camera.

So now just to finish off the rest-what an excellent excuse to get back into it.
