My very first attempt at a hand made cloth diaper (pocket style)!  I've never really used a sewing machine before for anything other than a straight seam!  I've never drawn or used a pattern before... this was my very first attempt... and it was technically a failure!  Although the dipe looks great.... it's about 2 sizes TOO SMALL!!!  I used one of her pullups to trace for the pattern and just added about an inch around for seam... but my inexperienced cost me a lot of wasted fabric and lots of time trimming and straightening so in the end it was too small!  But other than that, I LOVE IT!  I already have my pattern drawn for the next try... this time I took her exact measurements and added a few inches for elastic gathering and seams!  LOL

It is a side snap pocket style "pullup"!
