Munchkin wetbag after 2 months of use |
So I got Babyville PUL material from Joanns and am planning to make
a wetbag because the one I got at Target malfunctioned within a month
of when I bought it. It is supposed to snap down into a little square,
but the snap promptly came off. So, instead of buying another one, I
will make my own; it's part of being eco-friendly/ thrifty.
I bought the 3 pack of PUL since I didn't want to invest the $15 dollars it costs by the yard without a plan for what I wanted to make. One side will be the yellow and the other, duckies. I figure any folding or cutting will make the bag too small when finished. I plan to make the bag similar to the one I bought. It is pretty easy to make. I want to put a strap on it just like on the store version. I also want it to snap in 2 places, so figuring that out will be fun, too.

Steps:
If my
material was not already pre-cut, I would decide how big I wanted the
final product and cut my material. At $15/yd definitely measure twice,
cut once!
- sew in zipper and snap strap (all in the same seam)
- apply snaps, make sure to reinforce
- turn bag inside out and sew seams. Note: I don't want any unnecessary leaks so I am finishing my seams.
- Babyville recommends tossing finished products in the dryer (20 min on high) to seal the holes made by needles, pins etc.
