I decided to whip up a diaper and wipes clutch prior to babies arrival. Melissa of I Still Love You, offers several free variations of her Poopy Clutch. I decided to try out the scalloped edge poopy clutch, using some faux leather/vinyl that I had on hand.

I wanted to use only the supplies that I had on hand (saving for baby bills), so I decided to use a heavy duty snap in place of the fastener that she used.
I also added a flower detail that I cut out using my Go! Baby fabric cutter. I used the Rose of Sharon die, and cut out one of each of the three biggest flowers.
I stitched around all sides of the piece of vinyl, using an elongated stitch in contrasting thread. I then used some Fabri-Tac glue to secure the three bottom corners (a variation from Melissa's tutorial). After the glue was fully dry I attached the bottom snap.
I punched a small hole in the center of my flowers, though I only ended up being able to use two of them.
Due to the thickness of the vinyl, I was only able to secure two layers of flower with the top flap of the clutch. I attached my snap through the three thicknesses of material.
I then used my leather punch and hammer to punch a few holes along each scalloped edge.
It accommodates several diapers nicely. Now I need to go hunt through my boxes of baby supplies to find my travel size wipes container. The travel size pampers container was a bit too large for this clutch, but I think that the huggies container will be just about perfect.
