I just love burp cloths. They are so wonderful to have around the house & in your diaper bag. I love that they are there just ready to clean up all the spit up messes & baby drool. A stack of fresh new burp cloths just makes me happy.
I also love the look of quilt binding. I think it gives a quilt such a nice finished look. So with fabrics that I had on hand, I made up these burp cloths with a white flannel backing & a patterned fabric front. Then I did a quick binding around the edge in a contrasting fabric.
I love them. And I just love making something super useful & good looking from materials that I already have around.
This is the same sort of binding method that I used, but instead of hand stitching the back side (which I usually do on quilts...looks so amazing!) I just pinned it back & machine stitched. I told you it was a "quick binding"!
Now my only problem is that I need way more than 3 burp cloths. :)

Totally off the topic of burp cloths and binding but..
I read your blog often and I just want to say that even thought I don't know you at all I think you are a really nice, genuine person. In addition to that I like your style and you seem like an awesome mom.
There, now that I've said what was really on my mind, I like your cool burp cloths.
I was just catching up on your blog. Your shower was so cute and fun. Great to see you. I will be watching for some baby news coming soon. I can't believe you are already dilated that much. The wait is almost over!
Love the color combos - very cute!
