Nesting part II: homeade nursing pads

I am learning to sew (thanks to my sewing teacher, my mom). With that comes fun projects and saving money. A good friend of mine showed me a few months ago how she made some re-usable nursing pads out of old t-shirts and anything absorbent around the house. Just a week or so ago I began collecting items that I could use in my attempt to make my own. I am pretty excited about the outcome and have been making tons to give to my other mommy friends. It is a strange thing to admit that I am looking forward to putting these to good use...leaky boobs I am prepared for you!! Below are some websites that I based my pattern off of...other women have gone before me, so why re-create?!

"When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares."
