Compact diaper bag

A while back I bought a stroller bag from Totaja and it inspired a little sewing project of my own: rather than just throwing diapers and wipes into the stroller bag I wanted to make a compact diaper bag in the same design that would hold everything needed for a day's diaper changes while still being easily portable.

Did it take longer than I expected? Sure did! Did I curse, sweat and lose at least two liters of blood through the countless holes I poked into my hands with various needles and pins? Absolutely! Were there lessons to be learned along the way? Oh yes!

But I am really happy with how the bag turned out and now that I am slowly regaining feeling in my fingertips it all seems worth it.

Here's a picture from the front. The bag has a wrist strap on the side.


Inside it has enough room for at least four diapers and a big package of wet wipes


On the backside there is a seperate open pocket for the changing pad. This way you can easily access it with one hand while holding the baby.

The backside of the changing pad is cushioned for extra comfort.
