All Done!

Tonight I finished sewing up my newest diaper. It's a medium Fattycakes side snapping fitted diaper. `The outer layer is a printed cotton interlock, with a red velour inner. The internal soaker is two layers of hemp terry, with a snap in soaker consisting of two more layers of hemp terry, topped with velour.

I made another diaper in the same pattern, but in a size large. The rise is a bit high on that one, but I think the medium should fit him well. Kaiden is already down for the night, so it will be tried on tomorrow.

Here are the pics as promised. For the most part the diaper came out as expected, though I did forget to put in the size tag while adding the snaps, and the snap-in soaker is shaped oddly. Otherwise it came out fine. :)

Pulled the sewing machine back out...

I finally blew the dust of the sewing machine and got back to work! Since Kaiden is crawling, and I only have two pair of babylegs, I really needed to make some more. They work great for keeping his knees from getting dirty or banged up when he's cruising around. Also keeps his legs warm while being able to show off his adorable diapers!

These homemade babylegs were created from a pair of tights. I was able to get two pair of babylegs out of them, though I'm only showing off one pair! The other didn't come out so nice, but is still plenty functional. The ankle cuffs are a tad too wide, but otherwise these fit him well. Great news for those thunder thighs!



I also have a diaper I started tonight. It's from the Fatty Cakes pattern, and is a fitted diaper. The outer is a cotton woven print, hemp french terry internal soaker, and a cotton velour inner. I still need to add the snaps, the external soaker, and sew the back closed. I'll have pics for you when I'm done, as well as a sneak peek of the rest of the future fitteds stash! In the meantime, here's a peek at the dipe-in-progress. Enjoy!
