What are AIO’s?
All-In-One cloth diapers, meaning the soaker and cover are combined to make the easiest one-step choice in cloth diapering, of course!
Since embarking on this “I’m determined to make my own cloth diapers” adventure, I have made many mistakes but I believe I now have a design that’s actually functioning!
I’m using PUL for the outer, a combination of flannel and terry for the soaker and flannel for the inner with 1 inch aplix to close. My pattern came from tracing one of our current disposables and has been tweaked about 20 times before coming up with a good fit that didnt leak.
Willow doesn’t seem to mind being my guinea pig either.. she’s a happy little chunker!
This is suprisingly easier than I thought it would be too. I’m not yet brave enough to do cloth on outings or overnight.. so I still have to buy disposables.. but I’m getting there…

I don’t know if your opinion has changed any since you made this post 2 years ago, but I looked through your tags regarding diapering and I LOVE this color and style. If you have one like this that can be adjusted to fit Billy for me to try, send it with the others. I may order a bunch of these since I’m REALLY starting to like the idea of PUL outter for around the house and outtings. I’d probably want a fleece outter for bedtime due the breathability though. I’ll know more later, but I just HAD to comment. LOL ❤ SuZ
@VioletMoonDancer7 – I actually still have this diaper! And all the other AIO’s I made at that time. While they are easiest to use, they wash and dry HORRIBLE! Too many layers for stink to get trapped in and like 5 cycles in the dryer! That said, anything with PUL and touchtape is easiest. With my daughter I always used either covers with prefolds or some type of PUL.. I think by the time she was walking I had made her close to 40 pockets in the pattern I still use now (which is awesome because all those pink and purple dipes I have stashed away will get plenty of use with Raven) and I used them all the time. The reason I don’t do that with Luke is because his skin is more sensitive and if he’s in anykind of non-breathable cover for too long his little butt is all red.. not diaper rash red, just irritated red – but enough red that I don’t want him to be even a little uncomfortable. Some kids are allergic to it altogether – another reason I want you to try before you decide. However, I would totally send you an AIO to try as I’m sure I have one that may fit him. I’ve already gathered up most everything so once I dig the AIO’s out I can send it right out to you!
Awesome! I’ll be looking forward to it! ❤ SuZ
Been thinking about you a lot lately. Latest ufc card was in Newark NJ and it sparked memories. Anyway… maybe you can find me on Facebook?? Thank you for the lovely gifted and purchased diapers that I used 14-10 years ago… and for the confidence to make my own custom diapers as well. But more than that, thank you for being a friend.
