Sewing Diapers 101

I found a great free diaper pattern online and thought I'd attempt to make a few diapers. The pattern is for a flannel fitted pocket diaper. It can be found here. The first one I did turned out pretty good. It is the light blue with cars. The blue flannel is actually an old receiving blanket. Way to recycle! The second one didn't turn out as good. I had issues with the elastic. I used terry cloth for the inner fabric instead of flannel. I think I like the flannel inner better.

I'm glad I made them. It was a good learning experience. I have now purchased a pattern and will be making some sized fitteds and pockets soon. I'll keep you posted on the progress!
