Every new baby needs a burp cloth at some time or another. While not all babies seem to have quite the same projection, burp clothes are a nice thing for any new mother to have on hand.
I used some of the scraps of material that I had on hand from the mitered corner receiving blankets, and some minky from the car seat canopy and cuddle square, to make a few quick burp clothes. I made two different styles of burp clothes. The two shown above are based on a free pattern from Cloud 9 fabrics, you can find the pattern and tutorial here.
They are flannel on the front, and cuddle fabric on the back.
I also used up some fleece and flannel to make some serged edged burp clothes. Both styles of burp clothes come together really quickly, and would make a nice, practical, and inexpensive gift for any new mom and baby. The great thing about the fleece backed burp clothes is that it provides a moisture barrier, that way nothing seeps through the flannel and onto your shirt. You can find the tutorial for the fleece and flannel burp clothes here.
Thanks for reading, and for all of your kind comments on our "nursery".
