I can not sew a lick, but I made my first belly band before I decided to buy some, and it actually fits better than the bought ones, because it is stretchy. I had an old baggy sweatshirt and I cut the sleeve off. The sleeve was bigger around than Huey, so I opened it up at the seam. I folded it in half (like you would turn your sleeve up, but with the rougher side in) and used that iron-on tape to secure all 3 open ends. I then attached velcro to each short end. The width of the sleeve wraps around Huey with enough overlap to fasten the velcro. Add the feminine napkin, and Voila! (that iron-on hemming tape is Da Bomb! I use it for everything!)
