I'm gonna be a 1st time grandma in 6 months. Eventhough I used disposables with my babies, looking at all theese cloth diapers has got my creative juices flowing. I'm also an artist. I have done many logos and print designs for the fashion industry so I'm determined to make the cuteest, very functional cloth diaper. I started my first one today. I made a pattern by stretching out a disposable pamper and so far I've sewn the outer cloth and a water resistant lineing together.

can i do all of the sewing for this with out a serger??

[@jhartist123]

Tommarow it's elastic, snaps, I may try Velcro or a metal hook type enclosure and the inside absorbat pocket play around with different kinds of things for absorbancy. Them I'm gonna add some creative touches. My little great nephew is my ginue pis. If anyones got any suggestions for me, please comment.

Could someone recommend to me how many soakers I should make for my newborn due in 3 weeks?? We only have 3 thirsties diaper covers size small and I read I should maybe make around 3 soakers, do you think this is accurate? Should I make size newborn or small? Thank you.

Has anyone else tried the newborn size?? The waistband and leg holes don’t seem like they fit at all. I have to stretch the fabric to its maximum just to barely get the legs to almost fit…

Not everybody has a serger, you should add written or verbal instructions for using a sewing machine

It would be the exact same steps with a sewing machine as with a serger. You'd just use a zigzag or faux serger stitch for your seams instead of the serger. You could even sew these by hand if you use small stitches and took your time.
