baby's first shooooes!!

We've just have a birth in the family, a new second cousin! This calls for a crafty pressie! There are millions of tutorials on the web for baby shoes, but to my mind this tutorial is one of the cutest...and the easiest!! I sewed up these little babies in 40mins!!!
I rustled up a little sliding box while watching a movie with poog and D last night...it was quite an involving movie and there was no way i was leaving to go get a ruler to measure the dimensions...hence the dimensions of the plastic sleeve are a little "off"...hmm, oh well!

What a privilege it is...to give a girl her first pair of shoes!! yay!!

spooners i want to have feet small enough to fit these!!!!! seriously - i have considered sacrificing a couple of toes for those babies - still might! it almost makes me want to have a baby just so he/she could wear them! one of my fave things you've EVER done!!!
