Burp Cloths

Recently someone gave me a pile 

of very narrow scraps of flannel thinking 

I might be able to come up with 

some useful items 

rather than discarding the fabric. 

They were soft adorable baby prints 

in shades of 

pinks, blues, lilac, and buttercup.

Since these scraps were all very narrow, 

about 7" - 9" wide and 17" - 21" long, 

my first thought was Burp Cloths. 

SEW into the washer with a 

mild baby soap and hot dryer 

to be sure the fabric was suitable for infants.

Babies always need several diapers 

and countless burp cloths 

in their first few months. 

One can never have enough of 

diapers and burp cloths.

SEW - Burp Coths they became!

Now to find a few
young mothers with
newborn babies . . .

And the leftover scraps
will be added to the
ever growing scrap ball
to be crocheted into a rug!
