The pattern very clearly said
to make a sample shoe out of cheap material
without interfacing.
Did I listen?

| I also didn't put the sole lining in properly.... |
I thought I'd handled all sizing issues on the front end
and the sample shoe wouldn't be necessary,
and besides,
(never mind I still haven't mastered them....)
plus
I'm not exactly a beginning sewer....
I should have made the sample!
grrr
My only consolation is
the second shoe isn't entirely made,
only mostly made....
what's wrong? it looks cute!
ReplyDeletetoo small :-(
ReplyDeletemaybe you can save them for a granddaughter:) they are lovely!
ReplyDeleteyeah, what mrs. J said ;)
ReplyDeletedoes she already have a jumper in the same fabric, or just the colors? i can't remember...
yes - I can still finish the other (not going to attempt to fix that lining though) I just have limited sewing time, so to waste it is frustrating... And - I'm not entirely sure how to proceed for the next pair. which is why I forked over the money for patterns, so I wouldn't have to do this kind of figuring...
ReplyDeletecolors -the jumper you're thinking of is fleece (and is blue & black) - these are corduroy but they go perfectly with the fleece dress I made not long ago. which she was going to wear today grr..
Grrr is right... I hate wasting time with a sample, but it's so annoying when things don't turn out as planned...
