Instructions

Supplies: 1/3 yard Flannel
1 light weight Bath towel

1/3 yard of flannel will make two burp cloths.  Cut the 1/3 yd of flannel in half.  Now you have a piece 12x22 inches. Make the design at one end, or if you like, one on both ends.

To make a pattern for the burp cloth, I've sent 1/4 of the pattern in full size.  I think you're clever enough to figure out how to make a full size pattern.  If ya need help, let me know.

Lay the finished flannel, with design, on the towel, right sides together.  Now place the pattern on top and cut it out.   This should fit across the towel's width.  (You can get three cuts or burp cloths from one towel).

Sew around the edges 1/4 inch seam, leaving about 4 inches open at the end with no design.  Turn and press.  Hand sew the opening or stitch on the machine close to the edge. 

All Done.  Quick and Easy.  What a great shower gift.  Have fun.........
