How cute are these!!! LOL I have a bunch of old jeans I've gathered forever!! Do have quilt squares cut out now....and a friend kept all the pockets!! Anyhow...slippers sound like a fun project!! And using plastic, instead of cardboard sounds like super idea!! :)

Ingrid we are suppose to finish projects - maybe that is what I am doing wrong. Great project - I cut apart some old jeans for aprons and now I have a use for those leg portions... I think I will use some felted sweater material to add some bounce in my step - sandwich the jean material with the wool in between.. I also have some leather skirts I purchased at a thrift store which I might use for the sole. Oh see what you have done - mind racing and I was planning to finish painting the windows today - now you know why I have finished projects - Crafty ADHD...

I saw those yesterday and saved the pattern to my computer. I'm going to make some and the suggestion of plastic instead of cardboard is a great idea. Not going to start them until I finish some of the other projects I have on the go.
Give thanks to yourself everyday for all the wonderful things you do! |

Karrieann...those are so cute! I am out of town right now but will print that pattern out for a future gift idea. Those could be embellished in so many various ways; you would never have to make two pair alike. Thanks for sharing!

These are tooooo cute! What if you used plastic instead of the cardboard? Then maybe they could be washable?
