How to Make Baby Burp Cloths

Supplies

• Free Burp Cloth Pattern
  
• 2 Fat Quarters of Quilting Cotton
  
• Scissors or Rotary Cutter and Cutting Mat
  
• Pins
  
• Sewing Machine
  
• Coordinating Thread
  
• Thermoweb Fabric Fuse Glue
  

Instructions

• Printing
  Download the template to your machine for free. Print two patterns, cut them out, and clip them together to create a full form model. Place the design on top of two cotton bits of cloth. When the fabric is dimensional, make sure the fabric faces the same way.
  
  
• Cutting
  Cut all the burp cloth inside it. If you’re planning to make different burp cloths, you can consider making a fabric bundle and cut through various layers to save time. I often recommend producing more than one at a time as the production/stitching of assembly lines is much easier than cutting and stitching one at a time.
  
  
• Assembly
  Position the fabrics towards each other with correct sides, then pin across the whole burp cloth.
  
  
• Sewing
  Sew the burp-cloth front and back together with a 3/8 inch seam allowance. Keep open a differential of 2-3 inches for turning. For newbies stitching around a curve can be a bit challenging! I loved keeping my needle in the downward direction and lifting my right-hand presser foot while turning the cloth gently with my left hand as I move around the curve.
  
  
• Clipping
  Connect through adjacent seam space, but not into the sewing rows. Clipping through the burp cloth’s curve would cause the fabric to lie flat until rotated to the correct side, reducing any tearing that may lead from the curve.
  
  
• Turning
  Switch out the burp cloth from the right side.
  
  
• Finishing
  Using the Thermoweb Fabric Fuse glue around the seam allowance to seal the gap such that the gap is done with each hand stitching it closed.
  
  
• Pressing
  Using plenty of steam, press the burp cloth with a hot iron.
  

Benefits of Baby Burp Cloths

There’s no other option than to get a cover to capture what comes on your baby’s clothing. There are other advantages where anyone has one or more baby burp cloths.

• Stay Clean
  When you use baby burp cloths, you will not spit up all over your face and clothes. There is a time when we don’t want baby spitting upon us. Nobody wants to have to clean up afterward, no matter if it is your child. When you are good at things, you should be willing to keep a clear face to ensure all that needs to be accomplished to suit the mission well.
  
  
• Save on Laundry
  You’ll be sure to catch money on washing on the stuff that isn’t thrown up. You can get one of those kids spitting up a lot, and only then will you have to consider changing your shirt, but you will also have to change other clothes and your baby. Nobody wants to do a lot of washing, so it makes sense why you’d like to make sure anything falls out of them appropriately.
  
  
• Less Clean-Up Time
  If you use baby clothes to cover you from the spit-up risks, you’ll have less energy to wipe up. It is especially helpful for busy moms who have no time to bring their infant to carry. When you have the towel, you are expecting to be able to see less cleaning. It is as easy as pulling off and tossing the burping fabric into the washing machine.
