diapers came with bad elastic and holes

In that case, if all you have to do is turn it inside out, you can use the machine because you'd be sewing on a part that doesn't keep the diaper water proof. They aren't my favorite either, but basically tact both ends with the machine (back and forth 3 times, but not too many) and then do a long straight stitch along the elastic (as big a stitch as your machine will go). It will hold it in place and also make it easy to seam rip it out if/when they need to be fixed again.

If you only do it by hand, sew both ends, then but 2 or 3 stitches in the middle just to keep it from wiggling around too much.

Next time I get that kind of diaper, I will make a tutorial

If all else fails, you can return for a full refund (you do have to pay return shipping cost)
