barfy baby

As I type this, I think it’s safe to say that Cassie has slowed it down on the spit up. While she was in the throws of it, I made a few burp cloths (as per Cathy’s post). I used what I had around and they came out pretty great! Not my first choices, but pretty much the only stuff that matched my green skull flannel.
I need some serious help with my top-stitching and I think this pattern is a great way to practice! Burp cloths are not items that need to look perfect and the curves are great for getting better at guiding fabric through the machine. Next time I might try one of my fancy quilting stitches.
I also need some help with the manual setting on my camera. It’s blurry, but you get the idea. I’ve been reading the blog Beyond Megapixels–it’s been really helpful in helping me understand more about the potential my camera has.
Pattern: New Conceptions

Yay, I’m glad you finished them–and from here, the topstitching looks fine. I don’t think Cassie will mind, anyway. 
Topstitching looks good to me. Hope that you got some use out of them.
Those look great! Thanks for the link to Beyond Megapixels it’s really helpful.
Cute burp cloths! Cassie will be burping in style.
What kind of camera do you have? I love using the manual settings on mine (Canon A590).
