Burp Cloths

I just looked back at my posts and realized I forgot to share my news! We are going to have a grandson in October. His name is Geoffrey and he is due to arrive on October 24th.



I finally got motivated to make him something. I had purchased some cloth diapers for burp cloths. I was a little disappointed with the quality of the cloth diapers, but they will serve their purpose. Trying not to sweat the small stuff these days.


I was able to get four burp cloths out of of a quarter yard of fabric. Mom and dad love the dinos, I hope he does too!


This jungle print was a fat quarter I fell in love with.



These last ones, I used ribbon that I had left over from previous burp cloths. I try to make some for baby shower gifts.


They look pretty now, but after a few spit ups, they will be all broke in!

  2. Congratulations are soon in store with the arrival of a new grandson! I love that name and the spelling too. My eldest son's name is Geoffrey but he is now shortened to Geoff. How very exciting.

    The burp cloths are so pretty....*s*... have fun making all those sweet baby goodies.

  3. I've never heard of burp clothes before! I wonder what they're called over here? Obviously I've never had children, lol.

    Congratulations on having a new grandson.
