Enough Burpcloths

With the amount of laundry I am doing (2 loads a day), you would think I could keep enough burpcloths clean for the baby.  But no, so I made some more burpcloths.  And I embellished them in caught moments because that was how this mama was keeping her sanity at the end of May.


I want to clarify that I am doing a cookbook contract in June, so this sewing (and the next post I hope to write) all took place at the end of May. I have time for a very lite version of the dailies and the baby and that's about it.





I really enjoyed sewing around the clouds and the hoops.  I just used a running stitch in perle cotton.  I want to search my flannel stash for more shapes to handstitch around because I love the look. I've even thought of putting some of these in my Etsy shop, but that's pretty far down the list right now.


 Hopefully we can catch all the spit now.

Sorry to be unclear: I'm editing a cookbook, not writing one :) I take freelance projects as they come and the timing on this one is not great, but I'm enjoying it.

Those are some beautiful burpcloths!!!!

I could have used them a few years back. My youngest was an Olympic-level spitter-upper. I went through so. many. burpcloths. And most were not as cute as yours--I love the hand-embellishments!
