Good day Cuties, Look what I made today for my little grand-daughter. It's my first time making shoes, but I have made the fleece boots before. Made them from scrap fabric but I think they are cute. She thought so too. I tried the first one on and she cried, didn't want me to take it off-lol-so I had to hurry and make the second one before her parents came back to pick her up. Can't get her still long enough to get a good photo with them on. (She wouldn't stop because she thought I was going to take them off) I used giffy grip for the sole, and a piece of fleece, in between the lining and the giffy grip. I lined with the same fabric. I hope you like them, but I know you won't like them as much as she does! -lol-Toogie

Oh Toogie these are so adorable. Hope you make her more - she probably likes brings, but may not know it yet!!! I had some silver fabric that looked like sequins (but wasn't), that would look spectacular for this shoe pattern. Oh, the possibilities!

Thanks Loralye. I find the straps are a little long for her, so I may set the next ones in a little deeper, before I sew the seam.

These are adorable Toogie :).... and such a cute GD you have to wear them! Thanks for the link to the tutorial too ...I just saw your post in community!
I read down here that the straps were little long....wouldn't velcro be a good option to keep that tail down?!

I'm glad you got the link- the pattern called for velcro but after washings velcro picks up other fibers and sometimes 'loses' its grip, that's why I chose a snap. I just think, if I make the strap little shorter and put the snap at the end, it will look better.
by tfk 28 Apr 2015
Hmmm you are right Toogie :) although I havent seen the tutorial yet.....but I can say your logic sounds good to me :)
Thanks!

I put the fleece in between the lining and giffy grip for a 'little' padding, although she loves to go barefooted.

Beautiful shoes Toogie. Isn't it frustrating when they won't keep still long enough? I like the idea also of velcro at the tip of the strap. Hope you get to make many more of these. Love Chris

She just was jumping and fell against Avery's chair. She burst her lip and bled a little...she is going to be tough, however, she goes at full speed ahead! Thanks for looking.

I really was surprised at how easy they were.I just finished her a little sun dress to match.I have to adjust the elastic in the panty, but I need her here to do that. I just had enough material.
