tango shoes

I made these baby shoes today.  They’re cotton and the sole is suede on the bottom and fuzzy on the inside.  I’m not too crazy about the fuzzy.  They’re a little messed up so I won’t be giving these ones to anyone but now that I’ve made them once, I shouldn’t have a problem making them again.  The instructions were a little confusing for a beginner but I still muddled through.

That pattern is from Star Dust Shoes and they’re very cute.  I’ll definitely give these another go.   If I hadn’t run into some (several) problems that were mostly my own stupidity, it probably would have only taken me about 20 minutes to make these.  I’d cut out the pieces another day and had I been thinking would have put the interfacing on at that time as well.

I’m going to look through my patterns and see what I want to make next and then cut out the pieces tonight.  Since I only have Saturday and Sunday to sew, if I can prepare everything ahead of time, it makes for a much more enjoyable day of sewing.
