I was just invited to attend a baby shower for my new neighbors daughter. I thought this would make a great gift ...
Buy a pack of burp clothes. I like the kind that has padding in the center.
Choose your fabric. This is fun! You can get really creative here. Themes, Colors, Holiday ...
Cut strips of fabric into 15" x 3" (the sizes can vary depending on how thick you want the end product).
Cut all fabric the same size.
After all of your fabric is cut into strips, then comes the ironing. This is the longest part of the whole process. First, iron the ends in to fit the width of your burp cloth. Approx 1/2" - 3/4". Then iron the long part of your fabric about 1/4" in on both sides. Lastly, fold in half evenly and iron. This should make your strip of fabric fit perfectly on your burp cloth.
Phew! All ironed.
Put your burp cloth inside your strip so that the strip is equal on both sides and pin down. Sew across. You can use a zig zig if you'd like. I just used a straight stitch. Do this on each end of the burp cloth.
I just couldn't resist this cute little puppy.
Wha La! Give this a whirl, your expecting Mom's will love them!
