If you are going to all that trouble, why not just use terries in the first place?

I did with my girls & it was rarely more trouble. After my girls were past the nappy stage, I gave them an extra boil wash & then dyed them to match the bathroom & kitchen, (the nappies; not my daughters!) They did service as hand towels for ages. (The last one 'died' last year, & my youngest is 18!) When the are too far gone for towels, they were then used for floor cloths, & then finally composted as they are 100% cotton. (I used veg based dyes too, btw).
