CLoth Baby Shoes

I’ve taken a little break from the computer and have been doing a little sewing instead. I made these darling baby shoes following a pattern from Startdust Shoes. Leah has grown out of the little shoes my sister made her (which I have loved) when she was born.

The pink pair took some trial and error to figure it out. It’s a simple pattern but it’s just like me to sew things on backwards or miss catching an edge in the stitch. The second little boy pair went much faster.

It’s a perfect project for leftover fabric. I just had to get some thick soft fabric for the soles and interfacing for the uppers and waa laa… toasty toes in the winter time.

Here is Leah not really wanting to model for me. I couldn’t quite figure out how to get a good angle of the shoes without just getting a picture of her chubby legs (which I thought was darling but I’m biased. I spend hours during the day just squeezing them.) She was more interested in eating leafs and attacking my camera than giving me a smile. She’s a cute little stinker anyway.
