A while back, I found a recipe to soothe baby's dry skin from this book. Last winter, Maren's skin became a little dry and chapped and I tried applying different oinments without much luck. This oatmeal pouch seemed to do the trick. I just added dried lavender flowers to oatmeal, stuffed it into the pouch and I'm done. Originally I used a pair of pantyhose, which works great but isn't very pretty. I tried a more aesthetic approach with linen fabric and I am pleased to say they work just was well and probably cost less.Sew a piece of linen fabric approximately 4" square leaving one side open. Inside out, add oatmeal/lavender mixture and sew top together. Use in bath or shower for a creamy liquid that smells lovely.
