Baby Spit-rags

I wanted some cute spit-rags for my little boy (still in my tummy), but the cute ones never soak anything up.  I used cloth diapers (the big plain white ones) for all my other children and they are the best ever.  They were actucally made to soak up things (I know, go figure) But they are WHITE and show every thing on them, not to mention they are quite stained.  So I decided to cover them with cute fabric and have the best of both worlds: cute spit-rags and rags that will actually soak up all that nasty.

So here's what I did:
I took this old stained spit-rag (cloth diaper):


Then I used this pattern I made up:


 I took some flannel baby receiving blankets ( that, by the way, are too small to wrap a baby in) and cut them up making pieces of flannel fabric. Then sewed one piece onto each side of the white spit-rag.




I started using them right away (well, once he was born), and they work great!  I am so happy with them.  Pass or Fail?

  1. Update:
    I am still using all of the spit-rags that I made. They are holding up great and they are still so cute. I love them!
