Other uses for minky

Postby Amethyst » Sun Mar 18, 2012 8:12 pm

I want to buy some minky to make something for DS1. He's too big for cloth nappies and probably too big for a blanky, what else can I use minky for?

Autocorrect kept changing minky to kinky :lol: .

:lol: I have sent several fb messages about kinky nappies :roll:

cuddly cushions for bed? lining pants or tops, would be so soft and warm!
