Baby Shoes from Beading Mats

Hello ladies! I feel so bad that I haven't posted lately. My house is in an uproar. With all of the wonderful rain we have been getting lately, our basement decided to flood. Naturally it would be on the  finished side, where our bedroom, (and my sewing area!!) are located. So as you can imagine, there hasn`t been much sewing going on. I did manage to make two little pairs of baby shoes recently though. I wouldn`t call then so much a refashion, but rather a re-purpose. I found some pretty coloured beading mats at my local fabric store, and thought I would try using them to make little shoes for my soon to be granddaughter. I think they turned out cute, and the fabric is super soft and will be toasty warm in the cooler weather. I have only embellished one pair so far. I`m waiting for inspiration to hit for the other pair. What do you think?


See the whole post on my blog. Have a great weekend!
Until next time, Anne
