Step 4Putting the pieces together
1. To start this step, place the side that's going to go against the baby's skin face down on your work surface. We are now going to begin to attach the leg elastic.
2. Measure 5 1/4" from the front of the diaper and pin the elastic as shown in the photo (don't stress too much over this step, we're making diapers, not watches). Lay elastic flat with no tension and pin down the other side.
3. Tack down the front of the elastics using the sewing machine. Leave the back pins in place.
4. Take your 2 diaper sides and put them together, with hook and loop sides facing each other, elastic facing out (right sides together).
5. Sew the diaper together making sure to not sew the one inch flap down. You must leave this open, it's very important. Also, make sure not to sew the leg elastic down. When stitching around the crotch area, simply move it aside as shown in the photo.
