I'm sad to say that I'm not as impressed as I thought I'd be. Detergent is key (no f&c!!!) and we still use covers. But her fabrics are really cute. Just not very absorbent.
i really like my diaper covers/swim diapers, and i got them before she raised her prices so they were even better :P the sizing and workmanship was great.
after a year of constant use (we only bought 6 and they were all we had in addition to wool/fleece) the PUL has pretty much completely broken down and i think they are kind of worthless. i'll be making my own based off her pattern, but just for myself. overall a good experience, though.

^^ This entirely. The two of us were actually discussing this. I got my covers from her when I first started cding when ds was 7 months. Granted it's been over a year now but they are completely worthless at this point. Cute, yes but effective no. Even a damp diaper results in a soaked through cover that gets his pants all wet. I don't know if she's using a lesser quality PUL that breaks down faster or what but my pocket diapers have all been in our rotation just as heavily and washed just as frequently as my elimonster covers and I've had no issues with wicking or leaking from that PUL so I have to assume it's an issue with her supplies or craftmanship that has caused me to have a problem with just her stuff. It's too bad because they worked great at first and are so cute.
