soft shoe shuffle

I just looked back at the date of my last post and am shocked that it's been over a week since I blogged last. This summer is flying by. It doesn't seem possible that we're already into July.

I'm gearing up for a craft show in a few weeks, and was looking to make some new things to take with me. Here's what I've been working on the past few days:

I made some shoes!

Shoes! Aren't they so much fun? I should probably call them slippers instead, since I'm not sure they'd completely hold up for wearing out and about. The pattern comes via I Think Sew. Her patterns are so cute and really reasonably priced. And the shoes....oh my goodness!

shoes!

It took me a few days to figure out how to make them correctly, but now that I've got everything down, they're a lot of fun to make. I'd like to have a nice pile of them to take with me to the show in two weeks!

And speaking of which! If anyone is semi-local, I'll be at the I-Art Festival in Redford, Michigan July 24th and 25th. The show runs from 11-9pm on Saturday and from 10-4pm on Sunday. I'm hoping for great weather and a big turnout this year!

Shoes! What an incredible thing to make ... and they turned out adorable! Who would have thought?? Well, here's another thing to add to my "make someday" list. Hope you sell a ton at the festival!

Oooh, pretty! They look tricky to make but they're so pretty - are they difficult? Now that I'm working from my home I think softie shoes might be really nice.

These look so cute! I will definitely try to stop by the Redford show.

Cute, Cute, Cute. I love shoes and these are very sweet. Will have to try those. Oh...if I only had a tutorial (wink, wink).

Sarah - I showed my 84 year old mother your shoes (her birthday is today) and she wanted me to make her one of each of your fabrics THIS WEEKEND! lol I think its a hit. Hope you do well with them at the craft show. Be sure to let us know. I would love to add to my line. If the grandbaby will ever get here, maybe I can get back to other stuff. lol
