No pins! No plastics! No folding!
Isn't she cute!?!
I decided on "All In Ones," AIO for short, as my preferred diapers. Meaning that all of the necessary parts are included in once diaper: the soaker pad, the plastic liner to keep everything in, fasteners, velcro in my case. I set off to figure out how to get some. I quickly realized buying new wasn't going to happen, $15 per diaper was too much for me! So I turned to the trusty world wide web find a free pattern to see if making them was an option. And here is what I came up with:
*There are TONS of free cloth diaper patterns
*Lots of step by step tutorials on how to make them
*Lots of info with what to do with them once you made them.
Here is the pattern I decided on:

Then I added gussets to keep stuff in. Instructions for gussets can be found on the same website.
I have used them a bunch of time now and can say I really like them. I wish I had more time to make more so I could use them all the time. So yeah for saving money!

She is very adorable! I am always impressed with the crafts you do.
I love the cloth diaper idea. You are so good at it. When I first saw the picture I seriously thought it was a fancy store bought cloth diaper, but after reading I looked again and saw that it's a fancy homemade cloth diaper :D way to go!
