I was really nervous too but as long as I'm careful I've been ok so far. It is a pain to get everything situated under the foot of the machine though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-repaired-your-los-bg-diapers#post-1445838 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 13:40:22 +0000 Beebug 1445838@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I found a lady who re-did my elastics for $4 per. And then velcro to snap conversions for another $4 per. I love a good DIY, but with that price I decided it was all hers! It doesn't look hard, just slow and particular, I can't be bothered for that one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-repaired-your-los-bg-diapers#post-1445807 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 13:28:45 +0000 autumnlove 1445807@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Beyond2: Are you using a machine or hand sewing? I'm nervous about messing up the diapers! :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-repaired-your-los-bg-diapers#post-1444704 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 06:38:59 +0000 Beyond2 1444704@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just started working on mine. I wanted to do them before the new baby arrives. It's not hard but it's slow going... My record is 3 in 2 hours. I'm a horrible seamstress though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-repaired-your-los-bg-diapers#post-1444661 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 01:36:06 +0000 ChelseaRose 1444661@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I converted Velcro to snaps! I can't sew at all though so I will have to enlist the help of my mom or MIL to help with elastics. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-repaired-your-los-bg-diapers#post-1444659 Mon, 24 Feb 2014 01:23:40 +0000 autumnlove 1444659@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@dojo: yay, I'm gonna try! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-repaired-your-los-bg-diapers#post-1391331 Fri, 31 Jan 2014 19:08:35 +0000 dojo 1391331@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I replaced the elastics and velcro tabs in one of mine - it wasn't too hard!

Where are you sending yours? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/have-you-repaired-your-los-bg-diapers#post-1387225 Thu, 30 Jan 2014 10:36:20 +0000 autumnlove 1387225@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was going to send mine away but maybe I can do it myself since I have a sewing machine. I need to replace the elastics around the legs!</p> <p>Have you repaired your LO's BG diapers? </p>
