After my experience with making my fitted diaper much too small after making my own pattern, DH has consented to allow me to buy a commercially made pattern.

Any good recommendations?

I dunno
I'd go for one of the 'big names' in WAHM made dipes. Like the HoneyBoy or something. I forget who else sells their pattern now. There's one other I'm thinking of, just..can't...quite...get it. Argh!
If/when I remember, I'll post back LOL

Thanks for the recommendation Tara! I checked out that pattern and it looks nice. The one thing that I noticed though is that it emphasized that it was an AIO pattern. Can you use an AIO pattern for fitted dipes or do you need a separate pattern? Because I already own a number of nice diaper covers I'm not really looking to make any AIO's.

I'm sure the pattern..as in dimensions would be the same. You'd just omit the outer waterproof layer.

Thank you, Tara! I think that I'll order that pattern today.

you would use your cute print/batik/etc. for the outer layer.

you can get some good hemp at celticcloths.com or something like that. that's who I use. Oh and I heard people that used it put in an additional absorbent layer. You might just make a few and see how they work for you before you go crazy making diapers. :wink:
