Making your own diapers/ Pre cut fabric

I am looking to venture into sewing our own diapers especially now that we will have 2 in diapers this fall. I am mostly interested in pockets,fitteds, and covers. Does anyone know of a place to buy a precut "kit" so I can attempt that first before diving in all the way. Also, if you have any resources of great patterns, tips etc I would love that. Thanks!

    I've recently made my own using the Babyville(?) book/patterns from Joann's.  They actually turned out pretty good and my son is test driving it this morning hehe.  I'm not sure if its pre-cut but I know that Joann's has these little packets that have three different colors...maybe pre-cut? not sure.  GL! :)

       I was just going to suggest the same as PP.  I have made all my diapers so far from the pattern inside the Babyville book.The diapers have turned out great. It gives you small, medium and large patterns. Also on them you have the option of a full diaper or a trim fit. I have not bought the PUL that is prepackaged but my cousin has and she loves it! I have used the snaps and pliers and they work great!

       Check out Kamsnaps.com you can buy full set of snaps for a great price and they ship out within a couple of days.

    Oh also if you want, I bought a rotary cutter for like 6 bucks at Joann's. bought some fabric by the yard. I used the patterns from the book and with the cutter I was able to very quickly have perfectly cut fabric. Try this. YOu can really stretch your dollar this way.

    The Evaluation Kit is $25 and has a sample s/m/L fitted and a kit to make your own. Seems like a good deal to try it out!
