Tutorial: The Double “Doodie” Bag

Cami from Tidbits shares a tutorial at Make It and Love It showing how to make her Double “Doodie” Bag. It’s a large flat pouch that holds a changing pad, a couple of diapers, and a pack of wipes. Even better, it’s lined with a wipe-clean laminated cotton so it doubles as a wet bag when needed. Because it’s flat, you can tuck it away in the back of your car or slide it into a larger bag. And a handle makes it easy to carry on your shoulder, because you need both your hands (and usually a few more) to carry around a baby and all the stuff that comes with them. This would make an awesome baby shower gift!! Go to Make It and Love It to see how to make it.
