Test subject: Maeve is four-and-a-half months old, 8.6kgs and blessed with, um, generous thighs and tumtum. She is a medium in most WAHM and commercial nappies, and a size 0 in clothes (when fitted over big clothie bottom). The three patterns I used: Wee Weka S-M-L pattern for fitted nappy, available here. The Mamabird fitted nappy pattern, available here. I chose to make the Large size due to popular opinion that this nappy runs very small. The Ottobre fitted nappy pattern, available here. I used the smaller size, as this nappy is considered to run very large. As I'm a beginner seamstress and lack an overlocker, I made all nappies using the same turn'n'topstitch method with an internal soaker. A good overview of this method can be found here! Each nappy has an outer of pretty quilting cotton, a body layer of hemp, and a flannelette inner. The internal soaker (sewn to the hemp body layer) is constructed of two layers microfibre and a layer of the same hemp. All are fastened with HTH and loop.
