I want to make burp cloths .(have a embroidery machine so keen to use it) When my children were little we just used a toweling nappy folded half ..
..Would this pattern work ? Wouldn't the spit up roll off the cotton fabric. if I used this pattern.....http://homemadebyjill.blogspot.com/2...-tutorial.html
I can't buy toweling nappies here but can purchase a towel and cut it up if someone has a better idea...
Thank you for any tips or better ideas

that is a good idea to use cloth diapers, have seen them at craft shows years ago when my niece was a baby

I have 2 granbabies and i made some out of flannel. washed the several times before using and they were really nice to use.did soak up the spit. some of them i put terry on the back and used binding and these made a nice changing mat.larger of course. the girls really liked them. so much cheaper than buying.

I can't buy flannel here. That is the frustrating thing of not living in the western world sometimes being able to buy things that are common there.
I think I might buy a towel and do 2 layers of that...
But will keep your suggestions for when we go home.

I think using flannel like the link you posted would be fine. The flannel should soak up spit-up.
