Trying to cover all my bases.... so looking for patterns to make adult diapers and diaper covers.

If you can make infant diapers and covers... why not adults?

I have been buying diaper material and the pur? covering. I want to be able to make these diapers to insert towels to be extra absorbent. I have been collecting flannel sheets to make diapers as well.

So patterns? HELP

I couldn't find much either. The closest I came was how to sew an adult diaper after you buy a store bought one to use as a pattern.

Also a picture of a pattern laid out. So I guess they do make them.

Ok, being naughty here. Maybe it's the weather in Wisconsin?

I'll get my coat....
She looked at the wolf with a sweet smile . The wolf asked what was in her basket. `Food for Grandmother`she said..
She then opened her basket and took out a sawn off shotgun.
A few days later she walked through the woods in her new wolfskin furcoat...

Lesson learned, so not mess with girls who are brave enough to go into the woods on their own.

Well Wisconsin is a cool state.... and the weather has been pleasant lately.

I know they make adult diapers as I seen them on ebay... cloth ones. But I figured that I could make them cheaper.

Covers.... holey cow... are they expensive.

I wish I could figure a way to increase the size of patterns porportionally.

Thanks LindaLou for your help.

Paradox... glad to meet a fellow Wisconsinite.

Christy... you can forget your coat for a few days... to be warm later in the week. giggle
