I MADE CLOTH DIAPERS






There is nothing more adorable than a little sweet little baby in a cloth diaper, except when that diaper is handmade by mama! We have been using the gdiaper system but since the covers are not waterproof we have had months of frustration due to leaking.  So I decided to do something about it.  I purchased a couple Fuzzibunz and Bum Genius cloth diapers at the local cloth diaper store.  I bought 5 diapers and they cost me about $100.  I made a my own pattern for and purchased PUL, cotton, suede cloth, and velcro to make my own.  I made two different kinds of diapers- one is a cover to go over the gdiaper inserts and one is a pocket style diaper.  Both work great and only cost me about $3 in material costs to make.  Not only did it save me money but I enjoyed creating somthing useful for my baby.
