    How Cute! Now I must resist adding them to my growing list of things I want to make!

    How neat are those? Let me know if you figured it, I might have to get the pattern myself. I always have cold feet.

    There is a pattern called frog slippers that is this same design, but I like this pair because of the fuzzy clipped edges. Here is the site for the ones I have made.www.p2designs.com My 10 yr old grandson made a pair from fake fur and denim on Saturday.

    I made a pair last year with left-over flannel from the quilt I made so they were matching. The hardest part was sewing the sole around the slipper. Other than that, it turned out OK.

    Have not made any but noticed the pattern at Colides or Nancy's. I do a gathering stich on baby shoes so seems it would work on this. Reason for difference is to allow fabric to fit over the toes area. What does your pattern say. If you can't figure it out satisfactorily then contact the company where you bought the pattern and they should answer your questions

    I've made SIMILAR slippers and the upper part is always a bit larger than the sole so you have some gathers at the toe. The gathers don't show but guess the pattern maker thought my pattern needed the extra room at the toe???? You might try doing a gathering stitch on the larger pieces as previously suggested.

    I've never made them. But, they are cute. they look easy enough.Looks like you would start with the sides and put the two wrong sides togther. That way your lining and your outside are to the outside. Then sew the two sides together. Looks like your seems are facing outwards so there isn't any turning then sew on the bottoms the same way.(With seams showing. ) that's what it looks like to me.
