I generally tend to make little booties, but am branching out into little Mary-Jane style shoes, still reversible and still mostly made from vintage embroideries and recycled fabrics.
Today's effort is a rose embroidered pair. The embroidered fabric is from an old tablecloth and the reverse side is a pink floral corduroy - also sourced from my second hand shopping addiction! As I wanted something very girly, I added glittery princess-like, frothy ribbons instead of the usual plain strap. Even the soles feature a pink embroidered rose!
I just adore them! The hardest part is putting them in the shop and resisting the urge to keep everything I make... I simply tell myself their new "pink and girly" owner will love them too :)
Congratulations on your wee girl! How exciting! The shoes are just beautiful.
