Cloth Diaper Experimentation

Holy cow, has it been a while or what? I've been so busy. We had a new little nugget in December. She's now 6 months old and starting to find her way around the living room floor, which gets pretty hazardous when you also have a toddler who is training to be The Flash.

I've been up to a lot, mostly experimenting making cloth diapers and getting the hang of cloth diapering. Little Missy Mouse has a sensitive tushy and, well, let's just say in disposables her cheeks get rosy red. So cloth diapering it is! I'm still learning. I'm using a Babyville pattern right now, but my husband and I are working on tweaking it to make it more "us."

Here are a few Babyville diapers I've made, they're all hidden PUL:

This is a cover with a snap-in liner, great for use with disposable inserts or tri-folded prefolds.


A pocket diaper with heart applique. I used my printer to put the quote on the heart.


Another cover with snap-in liner. I love the print on this one, though the white is a pain to clean after blowouts. Thank goodness for the sun!


I do need to work on the elastic on the legs, it always seems to get stuck and not hold the legs as tightly, which leads to blowouts and leaking. Next I plan on trying a AIO or AI2. I'm no seamstress, but it is fun to try!
