    I'm so glad you are doing this fleece series. I have been gathering my supplies so I can try to make my own liners with you when you get to that step. This has been so helpful.

      I'm glad you're finding it helpful! I love the options that fleece gives me. They take some practice and time but you can totally do it!

    I wish Australia had Uhaul pads ready to buy and are affordable. I'm trialing fleece, matress topper with cotton fill for the absorbent layer, and a waterproof mattress protector for the base as kmart sells them cheap. But I think your tips on what types of fleece to buy is going to make a big difference. Loving this series👍

      I think I might do some experiments on different absorbent layers here soon. The uhaul pads I've been buying lately aren't the same as they used to be!

      Cotton batting suitable for quilt making is an alternative (2 layers).

    ive used polar fleece for my liners, because here in the UK, im guessing that is what blizzard fleece is called. We dont have uhaul but ive used the furniture removal blankets/pads from ebay and they look similar and work fantastic.

    • @TheTinyHerd
      @TheTinyHerd  2 года назад +1

      That's great! I'll keep that in mind, people from outside the US have asked me what to use instead of uhaul pads so that's good to know!

      I would just try to wick the fleece and see if it works! If the liquid will pass through then it should be fine.

      I don't usually buy plush or minky fleece because it doesn't wick the same. I think the plush anti pill will work though, as long as it's anti pill. I haven't tested it out yet!
