In store-bought overalls for newborns, there are almost always small boots. But, unfortunately, their quality leaves much to be desired.

Which to choose

Most of the time, industrial booties look very thin and flimsy. The fabric is breathable. As the saying goes: "Keep your feet warm and your head cold." And not in vain. Due to hypothermia of the feet, we get a lot of problems and diseases.

Therefore, we simply must protect our child from the first days. If your baby is to be born in winter, then you should think in advance about how to wrap the legs. Even if he is wrapped in a good blanket, booties will not be superfluous.

The pattern of booties is almost the same for any material. You can distribute small shoes into several types:

  • Winter sheepskin.
  • Fur-based booties.
  • Boots made of felt or fleece.
  • Lightweight chintz, cotton booties for warm weather (or indoors).
  • Denim designs for little fashionistas.
  • Crochet or knitting.

In this article we will talk about how to sew booties with your own hands. Consider several options from different fabrics and for each season, including winter.

Old collar and new shoes

It often happens that a jacket or down jacket has been gathering dust on the shelves for a long time and is waiting in the wings, and the fur collar hangs neatly from it in order to be useful. Just he can perfectly fulfill the role of little winter booties. You just need to cut out all the necessary details from it according to the pattern and sew it. Let's find out in more detail how to sew fur booties. The pattern is shown below.

If your collar is made up of pieces, then try to cut out the details of the required size or collect them from several pieces and sew them carefully.

  • After the pattern is ready, proceed to the assembly of parts.
  • First, we connect the side parts and the top of the boot.
  • After sewing on the sole.
  • At the end we fasten the strip at the ankle level. We wrap it in a ring and stitch it.

You should make a few holes around the booties and thread the tape or lace. Thus, the shoes will not be blown out and will not be lost. For convenience, we advise you to do all the seams by hand, as the parts are very small.

Winter booties on sheepskin

The principle of operation is very similar. Only in this case it is easier and more convenient to work. To make small shoes for a new family member, you can use an old sheepskin coat. There, the details are easier to cut out, and the sheepskin lies evenly. Sheepskin booties are distinguished by special comfort and warmth. Everyone knows that any clothes forchildren from this material is in demand. A pattern of booties made of fur is perfect for this material.

  1. We work according to the same scheme. We prepare a pattern, cut out the details.
  2. Go to assembly. All the same. We connect the side parts with the top, then with the sole. Decorate the top with our stripe.

Everything is much simpler here. We connect these three parts and sew by hand. In principle, it is possible and on a typewriter. You can also put tape on the top for fastening and just for beauty. But this type of model is most likely for older children, newborn babies will not be very comfortable wearing them, and it is difficult for mom to dress them.

Shoes for home

It's quick and easy to make warm home shoes. In this case, consider a material such as felt. They sew very easily and quickly. Any pattern of felt booties can be used.

Felt booties are very soft and warm. Just what the little man needs. Having chosen a color, we proceed to manufacture.

  • Cut out our pattern. Apply to the fabric and circle.
  • Leave a couple of millimeters for the seams and carefully cut out.
  • Apply the top of the shoe to the toe of the sole and sew by hand. When two parts are sewn, we make a neat seam on the heel. It is advisable to do it from the outside, so as not to harm the delicate skin of the baby.

To get our booties outfelt were not boring, you can decorate them. For example, make bunnies. Since the material such as felt is very docile, making a few details is not difficult.

  • Sew the details to the booties, and embroider the eyes and nose with threads.

Booties for spring

Now let's prepare DIY booties for spring or autumn. To do this, we need several types of fabric. Raincoat fabric for the top layer or other fabric that does not get wet and is not blown. Sintepon for insulation. It can be done in one or two layers. And fleece for the inner layer. It can be replaced with any fabric. But make preference towards natural materials.

The pattern of warm booties is similar to the pattern from the beginning of the article.

  1. Cut out each layer according to the pattern. We advise you to make each layer a couple of millimeters larger than the previous one. For example, the middle one, that is, the synthetic winterizer, is slightly larger than the inner one. Internal - slightly above average.
  2. Connecting our layers and stitching. To begin with, it is worth connecting each part separately. When all the details are collected, we already assemble our booties from them.
  3. Connect the side parts to the top.
  4. After sewing on the sole.
  5. The top can be decorated with our stripe. It does not have to be done with the inner layer. The top and one layer of padding polyester will be enough.
  6. Making a drawstring.

Forlittle fashionistas

To dress up our baby a little and make his look more stylish, you can make denim booties. Your old jeans are perfect for this occasion. For the inner layer, you must use a soft and breathable fabric. For example, cotton. These booties are perfect for warm sunny weather.

Cut out our details according to the pattern, while not forgetting to leave a couple of millimeters for the seams.

To begin with, it is recommended to collect and sew each part separately. But if you are an experienced craftswoman, then it will not be difficult for you to immediately sew a shoe.

After you have collected the first shoe (no matter what pattern was used, it all depends on your tastes), we proceed to the similar construction of the second. There are indefinable pluses in the manufacture of baby booties: one pattern can be used to make both shoes, since they are not divided into right and left.

Do not forget that the seams must be on the front side, so as not to damage the baby's skin.

Going to decoration.

How to decorate

Every mother wants her child to stand out from the gray crowd. And to do everything possible for this, we start already from the cradle. Let's talk about how to decorate our homemade booties.

  • Fur booties, in principle, do not need any decoration. The fur itself looks very luxurious and beautiful.
  • Small sheepskin booties can be decorated with a beautiful drawstring or ribbon.
  • Felt or fleece booties can bedecorate with a muzzle of a bunny, cat, dog. For girls, adding flowers or beads will be relevant. It is only worth remembering that all small decorations, including beads or rhinestones, must be very high quality and well sewn. The child, by virtue of his age, pulls everything into his mouth. And if you hurried and weakly sewed on the bead, it can easily get into the baby's mouth. Be very careful!
  • Also, a beautiful little bow on the heel can serve as a great decoration.
  • For little men, appliqués in the form of cars or an airplane can be sewn on the sides.

Spoil your kids with homemade items. After all, this is how they will feel your love and the warmth of your hands even more.
