❁First Baby Shoes❁

 ❁ Well, here it is! My first try at baby shoes! Aren't they ADORABLE??? My next pair are boy shoes. But I have a project in between now and then. It started out pretty easy. The soles are another story.... ❁

 ❁ The cool thing about this pattern is that it has 3 layers instead of 2 which make the shoes a little stiffer. And it recommends you use flannel as the inner lining between the other 2 layers. They are DEFINITELY new born shoes but I hope to get good enough to make all sizes. ❁

❁ The reason the soles were so difficult was because the instructions weren't that good. This is what's called seamless. There are no seems visible ANYWHERE. All the patterns I have seen online show the seems on the inside of the shoe. But not these. Oh and next time I think I will add light card board to the bottom to make it a little stiffer. They are still kind of flimsy. Not that it matters if it's on a new born. ❁

Oh Here are the two links of tutorials that I know of for making baby shoes.
