First off the bat for Sewing Stuff is reusable or washable breast/nursing pads.
From experience, I suggest making waterproof breast/nursing pads or at least super absorbent ones. Below are some links to some great FREE sewing patterns &/or tutorials on how to make reusable or washable breast/nursing pads using old T-shirts or easy to get fabrics.
I also suggest making at least 20+ pairs of breast/nursing pads, if you're like me i.e. only do laundry about twice a week :P.
* A Stitch in Lime provides yet another absorbent method but using micro fleece.
* eHow has a quick and easy method to make breast/nursing pads from items you already have e.g. old T-shirts etc.
* Exploring Womanhood provides a method for making contoured breast/nursing pads.
* Little Lizard King provides an alternative way to make breast/nursing pads with cotton batting.
* Passionate Homemaking provides an alternative method using fleece making the breast/nursing pad quite absorbent!
Please Note:
Breast/nursing pads should be changed as soon as they become damp to lessen the risk of infection, thrush etc. This is usually after a feed from milk let down.

New to Bandusta Australia's Blog - Sewing Stuff
I've been thinking about this for some time now and finally decided to go ahead with it. I will be adding a section called Sewing Stuff to this blog where I'll have links to free sewing patterns &/or free sewing tutorials that I think will be useful for Mums like me :).
I plan to keep Sewing Stuff updated with links to new or better sewing patterns &/or tutorials and ensuring all links still work!
