First you will need to turn the baby washcloth into the butterfly's body. To do this, first fold the washcloth in half. Then take your chenille stem, also folded in half, and lay it in the center of the washcloth, with the folded part of the stem on the washcloth. You will also need to lay a piece of curling ribbon across the washcloth, long enough to tie around your diaper.

Now fold your washcloth with the ribbon and stem in it, and starting from the folded end, roll it up. This will be the butterfly body. Take 3 or 4 short pieces of ribbon and tie them tightly around the washcloth. Now take your tulle and cut it into a rectangle about the same size as your diaper.

Lay the diaper, design side down, on a flat surface. Lay the tulle on top of it, and lay your butterfly body on top of that. Now you will use your ribbon (that is through the middle of the washcloth) and tie the body to the diaper. Trim the excess ribbon and you have a diaper butterfly!!
