I Love Soft Cozy Slippers

For Christmas this year I decided I

wanted to make the grandkids slippers.

5 cute little pairs of them! 

So I started looking at fabric and

fell in love with Dr. Suess. I

couldn't get enough. I think it

was the bright colors. Perfect for

kids. And who does not like

Dr. Suess characters? 

I started on Landons first. He is the

cute little guy in my last two posts.

Not the baby, the big boy. 

He is 6. 

He is a big boy. 

Just ask him! 

I got softest red flannel I could find.

Dr. Suess flannel and some soft

furry plushy fabric for the innards.

Aren't they cute!!

I decided to hand stitch

around the tops. I love

the look of the blanket

stitch on different things.

Nice handmade look I think.

I cute out the leather in the shape

of a footprint. Just cut it freestyle

to fit the bottom of the slipper.

Thought it looked pretty cute!

Its  red leather, bottom side

up. No Slidin' with this either!

 I made my son a pair of slippers, his

leather on the bottom was a big

heart. He is 34, figured your never

to old to know mommy loves you! ha!

*sigh* I only got this one pair finished

before Christmas. And I have yet

to start the other 4.The rate I am

 going, I will probably

have them finished by 

next Christmas! ha! 

hmmm... did I just jinx myself???

Today I am loving

Weight Watchers fudge bars,

the great care my Dr. gave me this morning,

the wonderful phone call from a dear old friend,

all the laughter during that phone call,

my STILL lit Christmas tree,

sitting in my warm cozy bed this morning having

that first cup of tea,

my last cup of  tea in my warm cozy bed.

and you.
