I like the bold simplicity of the chevron fabric from Riley Blake. It can go with most any baby theme. I have a rainbow of colors in stock. New moms need lots of burp cloths so make a bunch of these in little time. This post contains affiliate links.

Step

cut your fabric
1. Measure the center part of the diaper. Cut the fabric 1/2 in wider and 1 in longer than the center part of the diaper. I use infant size Osocosy diapers. After washing & ironing, they measure about 10 in. x 14 in. My piece of fabric is 16 in. x 5 in.
Step 3. Center the burp cloth fabric on the diaper. Pin the fabric to the diaper starting at one of the short ends and then the other and then the longer sides.

Cut the threads and you are finished. Repeat as many times as you want. Looking for a great place to get fabric. I use fabric.com on Amazon.com. They have tons of fabric.
