How to make a pair of sweet little slipper boots!

Ok so first off you will need the template which is right here


Just enlarge it until it fits your feet (use a tape measure or a shoe instead of putting your feet all over your computer screen haah!)  and follow my video tutorial or the instructions on the template!

 

If you would like to purchase a pair handmade by me then follow onto my Etsy shop! If i do not have a colour in stock that you would like, feel free to message me! Make sure when purchasing include your size!

 Here are the pair I made for my Mum as luminous pink isn't really her favourite colour. I used brown felt for the soles and an old felted cardigan as the main body (I doubled over the blue material as it was a little thin).

To make contrasting soles, cut the template down the 'fold' line and place the left side  on the different colour. Cut out each side of the template and sew together like usual including down the original 'fold' line. Be careful with extra seam allowance when cutting out for a contrasting sole...include an extra centimetre either side of the 'fold' line.
