DIY Baby Shoes

March 18, 2011
I recently went through one of the most traumatic experiences of my life. Making these:

Sure, they seem innocent enough, but they’re actually somewhat evil.
I made them for my new little niece. I thought, “Baby shoes? Sure, that would be no problem. Just a cute project.” They were insanely difficult. I made about 12 shoes before I came up with the pair that I sent off.
And that’s after watching a video on how to do handstitching over and over. Because I really didn’t know how to do that and make it invisible. But these turned out just fine, and they’re reversible. So when you’re not feeling green all over, enjoy the polka dot side.
And I got the fantastic pattern from Sweet Pea Pattern on etsy. If you want to try making some for yourself.
