Description: Tip from one of our readers on how to use old towels to make homemade baby diapers.

I gave birth to our first child in 1987, and cloth diapers it was. I was using the regular ordinary type of cloth diapers made out of flannelette, which had to be folded, pinned, and used with rubber pants, which I did.

My sister-in-law, a nurse at the local hospital always had access to well used hand and bath towels which were tossed out on a regular basis, so she always gave me the old towels which I turned into towelling nappies (diapers) for the kids. They were the most wonderful cloth diapers I ever used.

With the larger bath towels I would cut them in two, run a closing stitch over the end I scissor cut, and there I had two new diapers. For night-time the towelling diapers proved to be a god-send. I could double fold two together, pin them snug and secure on the baby, put a pair of rubber pants over top, and never ever was there an occasion of wet through.

Old used towels as diapers, the very best diapers one can get.
