Can i use a cut up microfiber towel in a fitted diaper?

I'm working on sewing some fitteds since my DD seem rashy in PUL. One day out of PUL and with wool and fleece and fitteds her rash is gone!
I have flannel, organic cotton fleece and micrfiber. HELP

You mustn't ever put microFIBRE next to a babies skin,as it is too drying,but I know lots of people who use them as stuffers...That's what we call them in the Uk,erm....soakers? Yes i think you may call them that or doublers.
I guess you don't mean microFLEECE?
Which is fine, next to bubs skin

No I mean microfiber
I jsut sewed a diaper with one layer print flannel 4 layers of microfiber then 2 layers of diaper flannel. It is super cute and looks liek it should hold all night even if I throw a doubler on top
Pics coming soon...

There is that new AIO called Magicalls, that has a microfiber inner. I just figured I'd use microfiber as the soaker material... since it works for them.

Did you use it as a soaker layers or as a full diaper sized cut?

Why protect her from the hemp?

Not the OP, but hemp can get pretty stiff when wet... and I'd definitely prefer OV against MY skin over hemp.
