My baby daughter has lots and lots of cloth nappies, what she doesn’t have is wraps. I had bought a load of fleece last year with great intentions of making my own wraps but I’d never got round to it but yesterday, we ran out of wraps and I ran out of patience! This was the end result.

I unpicked a pair of cheapy leggings that fit her well, this was the most time consuming part!

I then tacked the pieces onto my fleece and cut them out. Note that the remaining fabric is balanced on my legs and the box next to the table to prevent the fleece from stretching before it was cut.

1. Once the parts are all cut out, tack the middle sections together and stitch those down to where the crotch will be.
2. Then stitch together two of the outer leg seams.
3. Fold and tack the waistband, then run the seam. Thread your elastic through the waistband and tie it off tight enough that your trousers will stay up. Either stitch the elastic ends together or tie a knot.
4. Tack and stitch the other outer leg seam
5. Tack the inner leg seams and starting at one foot, stitch up one leg and across the crotch. Use the backpedal and go back across the crotch before continuing down the other leg.

You’ll be left with something like this:

Which fit like this:

I’ll be the first to admit these aren’t the neatest FO I’ve ever done but I’m happy with how they’ve come out
