Are you as excited as I am about this challenge? I started with one cotton hemp flat that I used exclusively as a pocket insert. I now have 19 "t-shirt flats," dug out my Gerber (read junky) birdseye flats, and will probably add a flannel flat or two. I have a couple of snappis already and a friend is loaning me a couple of boingos. I already had my econobum one size covers, but I dug out my pocket diapers, too. I tested my camp-style washer Thursday, just washing the 3 flats I had used Wednesday and line dried them. Washing was so fast I was seriously surprised. Drying was pretty good, too, except for the darn bird that dared POO on my clean diaper! One of the risks, I suppose.
Now that I'm looking at my calendar for that week, it should be pretty interesting. I've got a couple of places to be and we're ending the week with a camping trip. Since camping was one of the reasons I wanted to learn flats, this will be good for me, right? Right?! I'm a little nervous, but I pledged to do it, so it'll work out! I'll just have to bring my washer, detergent, and a clothesline when we go. Or wash them all before we go and after we get back. I don't know. I'll figure it out.
If you're planning to do the challenge, what have you done to prepare?
