New Ooga Trainer!

I just completed Baby Louie's first Trainer!  It is a trainer and a cloth diaper because it snaps in front so you can change him if necessary.  I used a combination of the Tinkle Time original and pocket trainer patterns.  This one will be a day trainer since the legs are cotton rib and would leak at night.  I got it at Joann's and it is a great stretchy fabric for waist/leg/arm bands to use instead of ribbing.  Here are some pics - I'm not crazy about the lighting so I may redo these and edit this post with better ones tomorrow...









Well, I plan on doing some more soon in different styles - I just bought some fleece sweaters from a thrift store that seem really stretchy (although they say 100% polyester), so we'll see if they work for the waist and leg bands.  I thought this would be easier than ordering the Polartec Powerstretch Fleece online (yeah that's the only place I can find it).  I thought I could get cheap sweaters and have different colors instead of just ordering a few yards of the same color online.  If that doesn't work I guess I'll be ordering white and trying to dye it.  I will update soon with pics of what I'm doing.......
