Baby Burp Cloths

Have you noticed that store bought burp cloths are just really flimsy and any type of liquid just soaks right through them? Well if you are looking for a solution this is it! Homemade Burp Cloths Materials Needed: 2 pieces of fabric at least 20 in long and 9 in wide (I prefer flannel, but receiving blankets work really well also) 1 piece of batting (same size as fabric- I prefer Warm and Natural) Thread Sewing Machine Scissors First, you will take your two pieces of fabric and lay them on top of each other. Than you will cut it into a shape of a burp-cloth... I prefer to cut it into a peanut shape, like so…. Lay the two cut pieces of fabric onto the batting and cut the batting in the same size and shape as the other two pieces of fabric. Sandwich the batting in between the two pieces of fabric (remember to make sure that the right sides are facing outward). Pin around the edges to prevent the fabric from moving while you are sewing. Then, begin sewing about 1/2 in around the fabric. Finally, take a pair of scissors and cut little slits on the outside of the fabric to make it frilly. Wash and Dry- Normal Cycle I absolutely love these burp cloths; they are heavy duty and soft.... not to mention WAY cuter than store bought ;)
