CD Moms - Anyone order from Hemp Traders?

If so, how much fabric did you get per pound?  I'm thinking of making some inserts.

 Also, if anyone is interested, I'm planning to go to their location to avoid their FedEx shipping costs. If anyone wants me to pick some up for them and ship via flat rate box, I'd be happy to get more.

This is what I'm going to get.  $4 per pound for scraps up to 1.5 yards.

Sorry no clicky.

Ohh Interesting!! I'll have to think about this and see if I could even make inserts out of this.

Do you have a website/tutorial on how to make inserts?

I have no pattern.  I figured I'd use one of the BG microfiber inserts, trace a pattern then cut in that shape, zig zag stitch around the outside a few times to seal the edges and be done.  I figure it can't be super difficult - or any more difficult than it was making my own wipes from scrap fabric.

I emailed the company and he said "The amount of fabric depends upon the weight of the material.  A lighter weight material can have as much as 4 yards per pound.  A really heavy material may be as little as 1/2 yard per pound.  "

Personally, I don't care as much how heavy the fabric is as much as the absorbency.  DS is wetting through EVERYTHING at night and I need to fix that problem ASAP.  I have some JoeyBunz hemp inserts that are 4 layers or so and they are great.  At $6-8 each, however, I cannot afford to have a whole stash.  DS needs 2 of those, plus a microfiber to hold from 9pm to 5am.
