Shoe pieces

In this picture there are the soles, front pieces and back pieces. Before you sew the pieces together you need to make slits in the front pieces to thread the elastic through. Whatever fun pattern you put on the shoes should cover the slits or you will need to cut a small piece of leather and sew it over the slits.

Sew the small casing pieces on the back pieces at the top.

When you sew the shoes together you want to use a very small seam allowance. Also you can either leave the front piece just cut on the edge or stitch along the edge (the picture of the brown football shoes and the white and red shoes have a finishing stitch.
