SEW Hip! Baby Booties…completed!

SEW Hip! Baby Booties (issue 16)

have been completed…

Which is fantastic!

It now means I only have 5 SEW Hip projects to do to finish my 2010 SEW Hip! Challenge

AND

that I have made my first ‘clothing’ item.

Okay, so I made a McCall’s A-Line skirt in 2009, but that was so long ago it doesn’t count anymore.

 I don’t actually have much to say about this pattern

except that the SEW Hip! baby booties were alot easier to make than I anticipated…

which is good.

This is probably down to the fact the pattern has good diagrams to help you along.

That is, until you get to step 6

‘finishing the sole’.

I really struggled to understand the written instructions and the diagram.

I just couldn’t picture what they wanted!

 Fortunately the husband was about.

To finish of the soles all you need to do is sew the soles right side together

with all the boot sides & ruffles sandwiched between them…

easy really

(when you know how).

 So here they are, my version of the  

SEW Hip! Baby Booties!!
