Booties for Lia
I scanned the pattern and digitized the shape. Then added embroidery and blanket stitches.
Then I sewed the bootie front and back to the sole on my sewing machine.
Pretty cute, aren't they?
Next time I am going to add a color stop so I can add one more layer so they are lined and the back of the embroidery won't show.
Right now they could use a little more body and I have to get rid of the WSS.
I can just enlarge the pattern on my computer and make them bigger!

Thank you! The pattern didn't call fall a lining, but I think it'll be nice to line the booties.

I just used my brother printer to scan the paper pattern and imported the image to my embird. Then I digitized the shape based on the image, making sure it's 1:1 ratio. Then I added the embroidery, making sure they are right where I want them. And the blanket stitch was digitized as well. So every piece was stitched in the hoop. I put both fronts and both backs in one 8*10 hoop. Then I carefully cut around the blanket stitches and the sole pieces were cut the regular way.
And last, I sew the pieces together on my SM.

Not this one because it's not my pattern. But I can certainly digitize my own and share.

Thank you! Best part is I didn't have to do the blanket stitches, not even on the sm.

234496I love that you seamed on the outside as inside stitching around the sole sometimes seems scratchy for me - not good for little baby feet but how a lot of the purchase ITH patterns are made. Really cute.

It's possible to seam on the outside because it's wool felt, which doesn't fray.
