Loads if free patterns on a Pinterest, I just drew one out from one of those.

I have made many contour burpies and matching flannel blankets from this site, http://www.youcanmakethis.com/free-patterns. If you can't print the template you may be able to just wing it from the the instructions and pictures. Mom really like these. Just scroll though until you find "Burpies" in the free patterns. Nice site.

I used to use diapers to make burp cloths. I would embroider designs, add borders, or sew on appliqué designs. Obviously, diapers are extremely absorbent and soft, much more so than any cotton or cotton blend material you may choose.

My choice is to make them simply rectangles. Cutting out the contour "wastes" fabric and besides, babies do not recognize where they deposit the burp. It's usually down your sleeve so good to have the extra fabric extending that direction.

I found a good one on Craftsy. Perhaps you could trace if off your screen.

I made my own pattern, kinda hourglass/dogbone shaped, on kraft paper

I used to use kitchen towels with cute patterns and then cut out a hole that I bordered with stretchy knit. Could be used as a bib after it had been used as a burp cloth. Easy care!!!!

I found just make rectangle--use plate to round the corners and only make the curve on one side so there is more surface area.
