Instructions
for Serging (Instructions for stitching and
turning further down on page.) |
| 1.
Cut out the Diaper Body and Gusset pieces and elastic according to
the pattern instructions. Do not cut out an inner
soaker. Transfer gusset placement dots. |
|
| 2.
On the Diaper Body piece that will be on the inside of the diaper
next to your baby's skin, cut 1/2" straight off across the
back. I've used contrasting fabric for clarity. |
| 3.
Serge the raw straight edge.
|
 |
| 4.
Assemble the Gussets and elastic according to the pattern
instructions. |
|
| 5.
Place the Diaper Body pieces wrong sides together and follow the
instructions in the pattern for serging and adding the
gussets. |
| 6.
The inner soaker pad can be a flat piece of fabric folded into
appropriate thickness. The pattern instructions have
measurements for this, just finish the raw edges. Or, you can
make a layered soaker. The more layers, the longer it will
take to dry. I prefer a long two layer soaker folded in
half. |
|
| 7.
Slip the soaker into the diaper and it's ready to go on your baby. |

Instructions
for Stitching and Turning |
| 1.
Add 1/4" seam allowance all around the Diaper Body pieces as
indicated in the pattern instructions. Add another 1/4"
to the back edge for a total of 1/2" allowance. Cut
pieces out according to the pattern instructions. |
|
| 2.
On the back edge of both Diaper Body pieces, fold 1/4" down twice
and hem. |
|
3. Continue
assembling the diaper as per the instructions, but leave the back
completely open. |
|
