A friend of mine said finding the ultimate diaper bag is like the holy grail. So true. There is no one size fits all since number of kids, breastfeeding vs bottlefeeding, age of kids and cloth or disposable diapers, etc all come into play with what you need in a bag. The moment you find the perfect bag your kid is older and your needs have changed.
I'll never forget my first diaper bag as a new mama, it was HUGE! Seriously, like a tank. I carried an entire nursery in that thing.
Anyway, this free diaper bag pattern called "The Detour Diaper Bag" that I designed over the last several weeks is the perfect bag for me right now. I've never been into traditional diaper bags, the shiny ones covered in plastic and housing 47 pockets so this one isn't like that either. More of a large purse, really.
I worked very hard on this pattern and almost decided that selling it would be the way to go since it turned out pretty lovely. Just a few more tweaks and an even more detailed tutorial and I could be ready to sell it. Nah. Free is a good price. Enjoy!
Have you ever found your "ultimate bag" or is this a continual quest for you too?
