DIY Polka Dot Burp Cloths
Hello!
I hope that you’ve enjoyed all of the polka dot themed posts this past month. Today I’m going to show you how to make burp cloths. I know that I’ve had a great time thinking of projects to share with y’all and have really enjoyed seeing all of the great projects that our guest bloggers came up with!
Another Soft n Snuggly Baby Quilt
One of my favorite baby quilts to make is the one from my Soft n Snuggly Baby Quilt tutorial. It pieces together quickly and is a great way to use up some of your scraps. A friend of mine is expecting a new baby girl and I thought it would be the prefect opportunity to make another one of these quilts.
Tutorial: Dresden Burst Baby Quilt
This is a repost of the quilt I made for my last Riley Blake Design Team Project in July! I’m posting here incase you missed it!
For this months project, I decided to make a baby quilt. I love Dresden Blocks but didn’t want to make an entire quilt of them. Instead I scattered 3 sizes of them on the front of a quilt.
What to make one?

Baby Shower Idea: Decorate Onesie’s
Last month myself and some friends hosted a baby shower for a soon to be born baby girl. Since I always joke that if you come to my house I make you do crafts, I thought a baby shower crafts should be no exception.
I got the idea from the Moda Fabrics blog. They have full instructions listed there.
I changed just a couple of things:
Tutorial: Vintage Hankie Burp Cloths
Oh how I love vintage hankies!!! Last year I made a quilt with them and had a few left over. I like to throw them into projects when I get the chance…. One day while I was thinking about what else I could make with a vintage hankie… it dawned on me… “a burp cloth”… I mean they are designed for cleaning up messy faces right???
