I have a lot of hemp jersey fabric so I thought I would experiment a bit and make a hemp fitted diaper that is twice as thick as the original ones. I also wanted a pattern that had a lot more coverage around the front and the wings so I came up with my own. The diaper pattern is in two files located at meddiaper1 and meddiaper2. I used same method as shown in the diaper tutorial except I cut out twice as much fabric. I cut four of the main diaper body using the hemp jersey and four of the liner using the organic cotton fleece. I also made the liner using the quick dry insert method. I attached the insert by sewing down the center. I also sewed the insert at the four corners. I used two inch wide Velcro and the rest is the same. It turned out pretty heavy duty, but it works great. I am going to make a few more to add to the diaper pile. I think it is more economical to make the larger diapers using the hemp fleece as compared to the hemp jersey, but it worked for me since I have a lot of the fabric on hand.
