Diaper Double Making Question

Not sure if this belongs here or in the arts and crafts so feel free to move it.  I am making diaper doublers and was going to use the flat folds for the outer layers and realized that when I cut them they are going to fray bad and I do NOT have a serger.  Anyone else make them using the flat folds with sucess or should I just opt for jersey or flannel?  Also I am using a cloth folded it thirds for the middle layer, should I stitch those so they stay put?

You could use a zigzag stitch from your regular sewing machine. If you also don't have that, you can do it by hand using a blanket stitch perhaps, but that would be much more work.

Or, you can straight stitch about 3/8 inch fro the edge and use pinking shears.  They'll ravel to the stitch line usually.
