Critical Diaper Error

I just got a professional diaper in the mail, similar to what I've been trying to replicate. Looking it over, I was thinking "how cheesy that they put the wrong side of the PUL showing on the inside". But my mind kept chugging along, and remembered when I had waterproof tested a seam, and water had come through, turning the fabric a darker shade (meaning the water did soak into the fabric). Sigh. And how Tarah says the diapers are wipeable. sigh. Guess what? Mine will not be wipeable. they will need to be  washed and dried before re-use. At least I made a lot of them! See Starting up a Diaper entry for an example of wicking moisture if you aren't sure what I'm talking about.

Here are the soakers in production:

this is the before stay-stitching pile. My Super Soaker fabric is very prone to falling apart, so I'm sewing around all the soakers to make sure the micro-fiber is stitched before binding the edges.

I love all the little extra projects my kids have put around my sewing table (because they bring something to me and I say- just put it on my sewing table- lol there's no room left!)

Off to edit all my diaper posts to make sure people use the wrong side of the fabric on the inside.

Oh, and they also put the snaps through both layers of fabric, so that the back of the snap shows. my backs are inside the two layers. Their way makes snapping much easier (that and I'm sure they use a professional machine so that the pressure is even and perfect for attaching the snaps. I tended to smash one side too hard, misshaping it a little, and not enough on the other).
