They are called soakers in old pattern books. Try Googling "soakers."

Thank you gals, hate the name soakers, implies what I used to use when the boy was a baby, these have a grander name I think, as diaper covers, covers the dispozable ones, that are sometimes too busy when paired with a cute little dress.

I know just what you mean. I luckily found a quantity of cute terry panties with cotton ribbing at the legs when my DD was a baby and bought several in various colors. I used them all the time with her little dresses. I have never seen them for sale since. I don't understand why a very nice baby dress does not come with a matching diaper cover. Makes a huge difference.

came across a pattern from the free Annie's Attic from 2006 - sending to your email
