How do I make burp cloths?
I am interested in making burp cloths. I have a pattern but it doesn't tell me if I am supposed to put something in between the top and bottom layer. It seems to me that the two layers of flannel is not enough. Flannel is recommended by the pattern but it seems to me that it needs to be thicker. I would appreciate any information you have on burp cloths.
