Default Baby Burp Pads

I have been making baby burp pads from some left over flannel material to be dropped off at the hospital for the new Mommy's and their babies! A little bit off cheerful colors for the tiny babies to look at!

I just had 3 GC born last week, and would love to know where you found the pattern!

I've never used a pattern for burp cloths. Can't be much easier than a rectangle with one side indented a bit. I make mine with both sides indented. The smaller part on the shoulder lets it a bit less harder to fall off. Cut your own pattern out of a paper bag if you think you need one, I've made lots of patterns from them. They last forever.

I do the same thing--indents on both sides and make sure to round the corners to make them easier to turn. I don't understand not indenting both sides as that extra that hangs over the shoulder isn't used and with them indented on both sides it doesn't matter which end is up.
