My first two burp cloths. Trains!
I had been wanting to spend some time making something by hand for my new little guy on the way. I know it’s normal, but I often feel guilty for not thinking about him much (although that is getting more and more difficult as he gets larger and larger). I knew that if I made something by hand, it would give me time to really focus on the baby. It’s fun to wonder about who he will be. After Elias goes to bed, I often have a bit of time for myself…so I’m choosing to spend it for/with the coming baby.
Anyway, I went to the fabric store and bought some cute flannels to make burp cloths. I figured it was a simple project, but something that I’ll need lots of. I kept a few of Elias’ but who wants reused burp cloths? Think of all the gross-ness!
Last night I made my first two. They are reversible, and I have flipped one in the picture so you can see both sides. It was fun, fast, and easy to make, but I’m still proud. As usual, when I make crafts, I plan to make many more than just two. I have some baseball fabric ironed and ready as well as some jungle animal fabric. We’ll see how many I have time for!
