I stopped sewing for nearly a year, but have started up again , and feeling inspired by you with your positive and happy vibe. I hope you make more videos again.
Ive made for my nieces babies years ago and now for my granddaughters. The mommies absolutely love them. Thanks to you for this awsome idea. Love your channel.
Thanks for another great video! I've actually made a few burp cloths and had a couple of tips that I use. I use slightly rounded corners on both fabrics-makes turning right side out a little easier, no points to fuss with and stack multiple layers of both backing fabric and top fabric so you can use your cutting mat and rotary cutter to make the process a little quicker. I would cut backing fabric in one stack and cute front fabric in another. Happy stitching!
I just made these last night. My daughter and her husband had twin baby boys Dec. 11, 2017. This was an excellent video and I have not sewn anything since 1981! I love all your videos and will be trying more of them soon! Thank you for posting this video! Best wishes from Jacksonville, Florida!
I watched a "worst baby shower gift" video I was so sad to see that "homemade" "handmade" baby items were really put down and viewed in a negative way. These are absolutely beautiful!!!! I made my friend a custom diaper bag and it was the hit of the shower! Thank you for these videos they are so inspiring :)
I have seen that video also. I think they were trying to be funny and missed the mark. The examples they gave were poorly made/beginner projects that weren't useful, not beautiful heirloom items or useful well made gifts, or at least that is how I interpreted it.
I say there is a difference between homemade and handmade. The last being nicer. I, too, make all of my gifts. Hey...we could have got them NOTHING! LOL
First time mom here and I’m trying to cut down cost on items that I need a lot of. These will be great help as I have left over material and I can get a lot from the cotton chenille fabric. Very good tutorial 💖👍
misty huneycutt did you use the single ply cloth diaper? I have two packs of brand new flannel receiving blankets that I have no use for and I’d love to make more burp cloths so they don’t go to waste
I have another great idea to use them for! If anyone gets irritated with the sharp edges of an attached car seat belt, place one of these cloths between your body and the seat belt, it really helps! I lined mine with a soft thick fleece.
Thanks for a great idea. I was able to make a set of 3 last night. I have been watching your videos for many years and you are a great teacher. I was a beginner and now I have lots of confidence to make almost anything. Your quilts might be next. :)
I love these too and thank you so much for explaining how to make them and sharing your idea . They really do make great gifts . I had a lot of fun making them ! Thanks again ❤
This is a great video, you don't waste any time but explain every step thoroughly, and even make extra suggestions. Great easy project and terrific teaching, thank you!
this is the first thing I have ever learned how to sew today. my first time ever using a machine. Tha k yiu for making this so simple and easy so beginners ca follow along!
okay, i just found your channel today. i knew nothin about sewing but i want to sew. i’m starting my own shop and i’ll be making baby products. i only watched 2 of your videos and i already think i’m a pro at sewing. i’m now on a 4th one. thank you💛💛💛
I am new to sewing and this video was great! I made 10 of these yesterday and I can’t wait to make more. Your channel is super adorable and I look forward to watching more videos. Thanks!
Hi I am new to your channel! I am only 10 and I have a great interest in sewing! I enjoy your videos really much as they are very useful and easy to learn from. I just subscribed btw!😻👌
Good job keep it up. Sewing is a wonderful skill to have. I started sewing when I was around your age and now I’m 40 and can create my own patterns. I have also taught my children to sew.
For burp cloths, I like 100% cotton absorbent cloth, I often order burp cloths at Amazon DEFONO store, 6 layers muslin cloth can absorb any mess in seconds, protects from sniffles, drips, drools, and water. I hope it helps you. amzn.to/2Plg3YX
I am new to sewing and love watching your videos. I had no reason to make Burp Clothes but watched the video and decided to make some. I just found out I can do them to the NICU at UK where I work! They are so cute, easy to make, and great practice for the novice .
Thanks so much for this video! I bought a pack of muslin swaddles and was unsure if I would get good use out of them once the baby is here. Now I know I can repurpose them and get my money's worth.
I made your crib sheet a couple weeks ago and made these burp cloths tonight. Your videos are easy and shockingly even I can make them. Can’t wait to see more 😉
Please show us how to make a diaper bag. Also I'd appreciate if you always mention the specific names of the fabrics so that your international subscribers can go looking for it. Makes it easier I love you & your videos im glad I found you here 😍😍😍
Fabric lines come and go so quickly, it wouldn't be helpful for long to know exactly what fabric line she used. Plus this fabric might have been in her stash for months and the line is no longer available. Just use whatever 100% cotton quilting fabric looks good to you and you can't go wrong. :)
Wow Dana!!! You have over 500k viewers. That’s awesome. I love your videos and have for years, like I’ve watched your kids grow. I love your clarity and ease with the camera running. I’m glad you are doing so well. Hi from Connecticut ;)
Wow, thanks for this tutorial. My grand twins are 6 months old and teething now and parents are crying over for how much they have to wash every day order to keep up with them. Looks easy even for me. Best Christmas present.
Dana I made these this evening! I feel like I can’t cut a straight line to save my life, but they turned out good, considering I don’t ever get to sew and I don’t know a lot about sewing. I like doing it, after I get passed all the cutting. 😂 I love your tutorials. Their great, thank you! Oh and I also used terry fabric because that’s all we have in our town unless I order online or drive 1.5 hours to Reno. I’m going to try using the chenille next go around.
Homemade has come a long way. There are so many great products out there now to use to make gifts, and tons of videos of 'how to's'...tips and tricks etc.....The key is to use good quality products, make gifts people can actually use, and take your time making it.
Your sewing machine is awesome- I cannot work any sewing machine I'm really bad with them but I think even I could work with this one lol - great work 👍😄
OMG I must make these burp cloths!!! So simple looking. Went to your web site, I live in GEORGETOWN just up the road from ya!!!! I love making things; so glad I found your UA-cam video~
Great class! So jazzed to start this project! Do you recommend washing fabrics first? Maybe, first do a quick stitch around the chenille to prevent fraying first. I’m worried about the cotton and chenille shrinking differently .
I always wash fabric before using, not everything shrinks, but you never really know. It would be a shame if you put hours into making something pretty and it comes out of the washer shrunken and deformed.
Hello, I have only just come across your channel 😁 I was just looking for an easy elastic cover for a chair 😋 I have watched your crib sheet tutorial 💕 thank you! I do have a sewing machine but not so up to date as yours though 😋 but I love this burp cloth also 💟 thank you again 😋 Erica x
My daughter is having a baby, I’m so excited I’m starting to sew some things she will need. These are ideal can I make these with cotton fabric and flannel?. Thank you Dana
Love the video and your happiness. Your such a great instructor. Can you show us how to make that beautiful cardigan that you are wearing pretty please? Thanks
Hi Dana, I like your channel and the way you teach how to sew. I love your crib sheet and circle skirt video. I would like to see jump suit for girls out of t-shirt. Regards
I love your video and your spirit thank you for all your time to give us these amazing tutorials can you please make a video about your sewing machine? like the pros and cons of it thank you again ❤️
Do you wash fabric first ? I’m very new to sewing! I love the way you teach could you possibly make a video on how to make a towel bib? The kind that pull over the head
Yes, typically I pre-wash fabrics so they shrink before I sew them into something...but in this instance, I don't like to do that, because I like how the two layers of the burp cloth look when they "shrink up" together the first time....kind of like making a quilt. :) Hope that helps! Dana

I followed this tutorial and made a dozen burp cloths for my grand baby due in February. ...so easy and cute! I used flannel and diaper cloth.
misty huneycutt did you use the single ply cloth diaper? I have two packs of brand new flannel receiving blankets that I have no use for and I’d love to make more burp cloths so they don’t go to waste
jenndino518 I bought a fabric called diaper cloth at the Walmart fabric counter. It's soft and less than $3 a yard.
I've made these so many times now - thank you. People always love them. Thank you!!
I have another great idea to use them for! If anyone gets irritated with the sharp edges of an attached car seat belt, place one of these cloths between your body and the seat belt, it really helps! I lined mine with a soft thick fleece.

Hello l love your tutorial on your burp cloth’s , very easy and simple. I will be making some for my Granddaughter . Thank you
Yes! The Chenille is everything for burp cloths!
Lauren Poling
Is Chenille easier to work with than terry cloth?
Thx.
I made these today and they turned out so cute! It was fun making them!
Katie Miller hello may I ask you what fabric you used for these?
gonna make for my neice baby shower coming up next months. thank for share.. Happy Sewing. :)

I have made burp cloths using this video and measurements it works great. Thanks

Dana - you make the sweetest videos. Have you done any hooded towels for kids yet? If not, would you please? I think your video would be a huge hit!
I haven't, but that's a cute idea! You might check out this pattern, it's similar:

Thank you so easy to make ... made 10 for my daughter who is expecting in december
Oh awesome! I'm sure she'll love them :) Dana
I m so glad i found you on utube i watch you everyday ... thank u so much for the great job you do, have you ever posted how to make a babynest???
Great class! So jazzed to start this project!
Do you recommend washing fabrics first? Maybe, first do a quick stitch around the chenille to prevent fraying first. I’m worried about the cotton and chenille shrinking differently .
Great! This will be my return to sewing project for my first newborn granddaughter : ) Should I launder the fabric first to prevent shrinkage?
I'd love to know this too, if one needs to wash both fabrics before sewing?
Ditto! Same here!!!!
I always wash fabric before using, not everything shrinks, but you never really know. It would be a shame if you put hours into making something pretty and it comes out of the washer shrunken and deformed.
Yes and also wash the chenille or terry. You wouldn’t want one fabric to shrink and not the other.
WOW! I don't have a baby, my grand children are growing up fast...BUT I want to make! these!
that is a super nice sewing machine... ♡ I'm so ready to try this
Great video for burp cloths. I plan to make a bunch!
I enjoy watching your videos...In your videos making clothes seems so fun and easy ... Thanks :)
I love your orange(fruit）fabric.

Hi Dana,
I like your channel and the way you teach how to sew. I love your crib sheet and circle skirt video. I would like to see jump suit for girls out of t-shirt.
Regards
I love your video and your spirit
thank you for all your time to give us these amazing tutorials
can you please make a video about your sewing machine? like the pros and cons of it
thank you again ❤️
Lovely video, can you tell me where you bought the materials, you bought chenille cotton online. can you tell the store name. Thank you
When are you going to make a nursing cover? Would love a vid!
H
Could you use towelling fabric instead? If so what type would you recommend x
i like poly terrycloth. its soft and doesnt have huge loops of threads the way regular terry cloth has, but its still absorbent.
Love the video, love your energy. amazon's price for the terry fabric is outrageous. Much cheaper at Joann. But thanks for the video. Left a Like. :)
Do you wash fabric first ? I’m very new to sewing! I love the way you teach could you possibly make a video on how to make a towel bib? The kind that pull over the head
Yes, typically I pre-wash fabrics so they shrink before I sew them into something...but in this instance, I don't like to do that, because I like how the two layers of the burp cloth look when they "shrink up" together the first time....kind of like making a quilt. :)
Hope that helps! Dana
Where do you find the fabric with the oranges in it? So sweet!
I would have wanted your give to us a link for the fabric😩
Hi could you please tell me where you get your labels made I am in Australia. Love your videos !!
Hey! This video is awesome! Just love your tutorials! Did you wash the fabric before sewing? The channel?
