Cloth Diaper DIY




While there is a reason that many people enjoy using disposable diapers, there are also many advantages to using cloth diapers as well. Cloth diapers save a lot of money and they are a great project for anyone who loves to sew. They are also a great option for those who are environmentally conscious and are seeking to reduce their waste.

There are 5 different kinds of cloth diapers. These include prefold cloth diapers, fitted cloth diapers, pocket cloth diapers, all-in-one diapers, and hybrid cloth diapers. Prefold diapers are the simplest as you just fold up cloth, fasten it onto the baby, and then cover the diaper with a diaper cover. Fitted cloth diapers are slightly more sophisticated. They include elastic and if they are meant to fit all sizes, they have lots of buttons as well so that the diaper can be adjusted according to the baby’s size. Pocket diapers, all-in-one diapers, and hybrid diapers are a little more complicated, but with the help of our pattern booklets, you will be able to develop your cloth diaper-sewing skills.

To make your own diapers, you will need fabric, a sewing machine, needles, fabric scissors, thread that is either 100% cotton or 100% polyester, a seam ripper, a rotary mat, and rotary cutters. N. Jefferson Ltd. has a wide variety of sewing supplies, click here to see our entire selection.

In addition to buying new fabric, you can also use fabric from old clothing and linens that you have at home. Sweatshirts, cotton t-shirts, and flannel blankets are a few things that can be easily re-purposed into cloth diapers. At the same time, there is also something fun about using new fabric that has prints that are designed especially for babies.

Leopard print, polka dots, monkeys and owls, are just a few of the many prints that we have available for cloth diapers. These patterns are also great for making your own diaper bags or purses. In our inventory, you will find fabric prints that are great for baby boys and baby girls. We also offer diaper pins that come in the form of monkeys, owls, robots, butterflies, and flowers. If you are making fitted cloth diapers, you will find that we have a wide variety of elastics in a large range of colors and patterns. Our colorful variety of plastic resin snaps are perfect for a fitted cloth diaper project. Other useful products that you will find in our inventory are wicking fabric, soakers, and easy adjustable tabs. With our materials that are specifically made for cloth diapers, you can make really unique diapers for your baby.
