I decided to purchase the Fattycakes pattern. I have played around with a few ways of sewing the elastic, and each has produced a slightly different diaper as a result. Diaper Sewing Divas has lots of information and pictures about this pattern. I think I will be making more of these when I have time.
I used old flannel receiving blankets to make the printed diapers pictured above. They are pocket fitteds, so they need to be stuffed and have a cover over them. I don’t have a snap press, so I used generic aplix. The white diaper is made from an old cotton t-shirt. It is a fitted, so I used flannel and some t-shirt scraps for the soaker layers. I like the stretch of the diaper, but it takes longer to dry than my pockets. I also made a few wipes from the blanket scraps.
