DIY: Drysuit Undies???

Ok,
So I will get my new CLX450 Sig. Series next Tuesday. I'm realizing my 100g thinsulate isn't gonna cut it in this suit. The cost of drysuit underwear seems very costly.

My mother in law is very good on the sewing machine. Why couldn't you just whip up some good undergarments on your own?

I found a fabrics retailer (Outdoor fabrics, technical fabrics, ripstop, waterproof fabric, outdoor fabric, zippers) that sells Primaloft, a wickaway fleece, and nylon materials to sandwich together to make something similar to the White's MK3.

Am I missing something? I think I can get MIL to sew these for the cost of materials, which should be less than $125.
