...burp goes the baby...

Who can resist this face???

One of the things I use a lot of are burp cloths.. Why didn't anyone tell me??? David is nearly 8 months old now & growing like a weed.. 

He's eating baby food now.. Loves his carrots & squash.. 

Figured he needs some new burp cloths.. 

What you need is various flannels. Fat quarters work too..

I love the Dino stuff!

First, you iron the fabric. :) 

I used a burp cloth my mom made for David as a guide. You'll want to cut your fabric 9"x 18". This is a guide of course, you can make yours bigger or smaller depending on your needs. 

I cut the fabric after a lengthy search for my rotary cutter.. I cleaned so well, miss placing it in the process...

Iron it.. And place right sides together..

Iron. 

Next, if you wish you can do 2 different fabrics. Directions are the same except I pin the 2 parts together.. 

Right sides together & pin. 

Next, I located my machine 'Betty' who has been nestled on our dining room table.. 

I straight stitched 1/4" along the edge, leaving a gap to turn your creation inside out..

Floppy flip.. 

Then, I took them down stairs to my iron & ironed them. I folded the turn hole in so you couldn't tell where the hole was.. 

I was going to use a decorative stitch but settled on a zigzag. 

Tada!! 

Your done!!! 

And your little guy or gal will love them!! 

Happy stitches~
