How to Make GDiaper Inserts

2012-12-19 18.59.21.jpg
I was scared of using cloth diapers with pins for fear of poking my son and the cloth diapers were too big for him. Alternative, reusable diaper options were expensive so I decided to get creative.  I purchased the gDiaper, a diaper system that includes diaper shells and reusable inserts.  Paying $28 for 6 inserts seemed outrageous!    This Instructables shows how to create 20 reusable gDiaper inserts for $13.

Obtain Cloth Diapers and Fold

Purchase cloth diapers andfold one cloth diaper into thirds long ways along the seams in the middle. Fold the diaper in half to find the middle and mark it if needed.

Sew and Cut

Sew both ends of the diaper.  Inthe middle sew two parallel lines. Cut between the lines to create two separate cloth inserts.
