    I have a whole stack of 4.0s that need this done and I am so not looking forward to it. I commend you for doing it with 3.0s lol.

    I realized after doing laundry last nigh that the elastic is totally shot on E's Freetimes. No replacing here. GL meesh!

    I have a new-to-me fitted that needs replacement elastic in the back where one end has let go. I think it will be simple, but I'm still kind of terrified of ruining the diaper. I'm pretty sure I'll see if my mom will take a stab at it first.

    True story. I've been replacing elastics recently too, and it's one of my least favorite things.

    It was actually a Flip cover

    With the Flip I had the hardest time keeping the edge piping, whatever it is, away from the PUL to tack down the elastic. It took me a freakin hour to do the one. Pockets and a fitted would be easier because it's just the tacking. I had to rip seams and re-sew the casing back on

    The 4.0 diapers aren't bad, but it's just time consuming.

    Speaking of Flips.  Is there a way to replace the elastic on a flip and make it look similar to how the Best Bottom covers are lined?  The edges on my Flips are starting to wear.

    I just replaced all the elastics on 27 of my 4.0s.  That took me a while.  I did manage to sell all my artist series ones, now I'm just trying to decide if I want to sell off the rest or keep a few for when he goes to DC.
