It took me 3 days to finally complete this pair of cloth shoes. I initially bought fleece material and it was a major mistake. Fleece is a bitch to sew. Finally I threw the cut out fleece pieces and dug out the clothes I can’t wear anymore. The sole I used my old pair of jeans as the bottom, a layer of the fleece fabric in between the jeans and another piece of fabric which is the same material as the top. I completed the right side last night and the left side just now. Once I completed the right one, the left side was a breeze. I will make another one later so I can show my boss since she told me to show her if and when I complete one pair.
I got this baby clothe shoes idea from Aida. She made one for her boy and I thought I will give it a try. Thanks, Aida, for the great idea. The pattern taken from this site, Star Dust Shoes.
I was thinking of putting buttons on the top, but was told not to. Babies can chew them things off! I will try it on Ally tomorrow. We are sitting her for a couple of hours. DB told me to make a bigger pair for when she grows bigger. OK, will think about that.
What do you think? Ok la for a first timer, right?
