I know that a few of you must have tried it and I finally realized, looking at my mountain of fabric, that I should give it a shot, especially since I've been wanting to swap over to cloth for a while now.

Is it as simple as I want to think it is?
What is the best fabric to use?
To me I would think somehow mixing fleece and t-shirt material. But I know I saw on on a website that they had a removable pad to make it extra absorbant. How would I fill something like that? More fleece? Some sort of stuffing?
When kiddos are teething are they less likely to contribute to the diaper rash that's common?

I know that my mom used cloth on me for a long time but that was 22 years ago and cloth diapers were a lot different.

And should I pattern it after the diapers they're using now and put elastic in the legs?
I would just trial and error, but I am just farking awful at sewing and if I don't have a complete plan of action, along with all my potential screw ups I'll never manage to get even one completed.
