Hi ladies,

I have pocket cloth nappies (PUL outer, fleece lined with bamboo insert) I didn't make them, I'm not quite that flash with the sewing machine LOL.
But I wanted to make a mat in a similar style for nappy free time.
I have the PUL for the backing, so that part is fine.

I have some suedecloth and also some microfleece which I can use for the lining - which would be better do you think?

And my other question is what can I use for the lining? I do have some cotton velour (but I was hoping to make some wipes with that).
Can I use some old towels for the inner? (saves buying more fabric if I can). How many layers would I need? By stitching them all together, I wouldn't be able to use fabric softener - would it matter if the towels went "crunchy" over time if there was a suedecloth or microfleece over the top?
If I used towels as the inner, would I still be able to use the microfleece (I had heard you cant wash microfleece and cotton together).

thanks!
