Well, I have several medium sized minky scraps just lying around, so I decided to make some more washcloths. I personally use one. They are not really meant for exfoliating, but they are soft & gentle on the skin. I love washing my face with one in-between my exfoliating days. Would be great in a relaxing bubble bath alone or with a partner. I also think they would be good for rubbing on the skin during a massage.
I made several of 2 different kinds. The first ones are sewn right sides together, pinned in all 4 corners and on each side, turned inside out, then sewn around the edges using my 1/4 inch foot. The 2nd kind are wrong sides put together, pinned in all 4 corners and each side, since I don't have a Serger I zig zagged around the edges using my 1/4 inch foot, then 1/8 inch trimmed from the edges with a rotary cutter to make all edges even for both fabrics. They are about 6 inches square. The pink one at the very bottom is for a small girl and it's about 5 inches square. I also made some of the 2nd kind in 4 inch square for a 1 year old baby boy. I made several of each kind, enough to last a couple of weeks or so.
The 2nd style have been straight stitch quilted with an X pattern. The little flip on the 2nd style shows the color for the other side.
Let me know which style you like better. I personally feel that the 2nd ones are easier to make.
