I wanted to make a few more gifts for my cousin's shower, in addition to the fancy wipe cover and her cake (I plan on doing a post about the cake next week). When I saw
these super soft washcloths, I knew they would be perfect.
Kara, at
Creations By Kara, has a great tutorial for the washcloths. I just cant believe I had never thought to make a washcloth out of softer fabric. It makes so much sense! Washcloths are never soft enough for my skin, let alone a newborn. And the baby washcloths you buy in the stores are so thin and flimsy. These are so thick and soft, perfect for a new baby. Or for yourself. I have 4 daughters so Im going to be making LOTS of them.
They were so easy to make. They were also my first real sewing project. I was kinda nervous because I had not used my sewing machine yet. It was a gift for my birthday and I wanted to take a sewing class at JoAnns before I tried to make anything. But Kara made it look so easy that I actually made them first. ( I did take the class this past Wednesday, by the way, and it was great!) Check out her tutorial for the easy instructions.
I just love the softness of them and I cant wait to make more for my girls . A big THANK YOU to Kara for such a great idea and for making it so simple.
