I'm a terrible seamstress. Just terrible. It took me an extra week to make my 8th grade pillow in Home Ec. Thank God I don't live in a time when I would be responsible for sewing absolutely everything we need.
That being said, I have found that minimal sewing is essential to our little frugal life. Today I spent the better part of the day sewing with some extra flannel we had, & here are the results:
I made 7 cloth diaper doublers, 16 cloth wipes, 10 cotton ball replacements, & 6 flannel breast pads. Hopefully this will go a long way toward helping once Little Baby arrives & we have two babies in cloth diapers & I'm nursing.
I'm happy to say that all of the above didn't cost us a dime, but I am very thankful I don't have to do this every day. Seriously.

LOL, I can sew, but.....I sew like I can run. The only time I want to find myself doing either is if a chain-saw wielding mass murderer is hot on my heels.
