While it may be true that babies have far bigger needs than adults, their mothers have needs, too. So if you’re a mom like me who juggles multiple tasks at the same time – taking care of the baby while making sure that the rest of the family is not feeling left out – anything, and I mean ANYTHING, that can make our lives a lot easier are always welcome.

I don’t know about you but I have had a lot of encounters with emergency cases – and by emergency, I mean not having a proper changing table when my baby and I badly need one. But thanks to the genius behind this project, I am now one happy mom.

This DIY baby changing mat has changed the way I clean up on the go. You’ve got pockets lined with fresh diapers and wipes! For a little bit of sewing, this is more than just a bargain.
You’ll need these materials to make a baby changing mat:
- ⅔ yard cotton (main)
- ½ yard cotton (pockets)
- ⅔ yard clear vinyl or iron-on vinyl
- ½ yard batting
- hair elastic
- large button
- double-fold bias tape
And these tools:
- sewing machine
