They are so soft and absorbent, perfect for new babies!
My sister had her second baby during the summer. With all the use that burp cloths get, they get kind of gross. I knew she would appreciate some new ones.
I have shared a super easy burp cloth before. The drawback of that tutorial is that you need a serger. The average DIYer doesn't have a serger, so I set out to create some burp cloths using a regular sewing machine.

How to Make Homemade Flannel Burp Cloths
One of the things I love about these burp rags is that they're rectangular in shape. This not only makes them easier to use, but also a lot easier to make. I mean, who came up with the peanut shaped burp cloth anyway?Keep reading for the picture tutorial. Or watch the video tutorial.
Begin with two pieces of fabric that are 20" X 12". Place them right sides together. In other words, lay one piece of fabric right side up. Place the other piece with the right side down.
Sew along three sides of the fabric, leaving one end open.
Clip the corners to remove excess bulk.
Turn the fabric right side out and press flat.
Fold the edges inward and press flat.
Top stitch all the way around the burp cloth, starting with the open edge.
That's all there is to it! You could seriously make these in 10-15 minutes. They're so easy!
