house shoes
sometimes it is just nice to start and finish a project in one night. none of that WIP business to have hanging over your head. So last night I made myself this pair of house slippers. I found the pattern at the Craft: pattern podcast on friday, and totally loved it. I used fabric I had close to hand, choosing heavyish weight cotton rather than the suggested denim.
and they fit!!
I am not much of a slippers girl, I like to be barefoot, and now I have 2 pairs as my mum bought me some pump style slippers for christmas too, but both those and these new house slippers are just nice to slip on for a bit when its cold and my toes feel icy. That is why I didnt worry about making them too sturdy, for occasional use prettiness wins the day.
Esme wants me to make her some now, another evening project for me.

Beautiful, great idea! A much better use of the fabric than the original one.
You and Esme will look dashing in your matching slippers - now get to work making them :)
They are so you !!!
Very cute... I love quick projects!
Super cute! Good for you.
I love these slippers! I'm going to try some myself.
