Baby shoes

Hi readers,
I had this don't-want-to-sew-bag fever yesterday. I still wanted to sew but not bags. This always happens to me. I was thinking about what I want to sew since my brain will not stop thinking about what to do next? What to do next? Usually, a very simple and quick project will do.


And then I thought that I haven't sewed anything for my baby girl. Cotton knit is not available in Malaysia and to buy it online is not something that I can't afford for the time being and so making a dress or baby clothes was not going to happen. But I still need to sew something. But what?! Bib? NO, no reason to, because I only use a napkin (baby napkin) whenever I need to burp her.

Wait a minute. How about a pair of shoes? Yes, that will do, great. A pair of baby shoes is. It was quick but not easy sewing. The tiny opening for the shoes gave me a lot of work to make sure that the fabrics are aligned together, neatly. I finished the bias binding hand sewn. The inner sole also hands sewn. I attached laces and 2 pairs of ribbons as the shoelace. It was worth it to see the outcome. Isn't that cute, don't you think? I think I'm going to make a variation of these.


On the proud owner's feet ( I hope she loves it, she keep on looking at it when I put it on her)

With her big sister
I love it when she makes her mouth like this. This means she is being cheeky.

Thank you Robert, compliment goes to the baby girl who makes this possible :) she is just so inspiring. I do hope I have a lot of cotton knits so that I can make clothes for her :) it's just so expensive to knits online. It's not available here :(
