Shoes such as slippers are relevant at any time of the year. In summer, the foot in them rests from sandals, and in winter they do not allow to freeze. We suggest you make homemade slippers with your own hands. A pattern is included with each workshop.
Preparation of pattern
Whatever slippers you sew, to simplify the sewing process, the first step is to make a foot pattern.
Working order:
- Get some cardboard, a marker and scissors.
- Place a sheet of cardboard on the floor and place your foot on top.
- Trace the outline of the foot with a marker. Do not press the felt-tip pen close to the foot.
- Carefully cut out the trace along the outline.
The pattern is ready. Now you can apply this footprint to any fabric and sew slippers. If you need to sew slippers of a different size, then simply reduce or increase the pattern.
One Piece Closed Toe Slippers
Do-it-yourself slippers pattern from one piece is very simple. To build it, you need to take a marker and a suitable dense fabric.(e.g. felt or fleece).
Master class:
- Put a pattern on the selected material and circle it. Draw the elements as in the illustration above.
- Cut the part along the outline.
- Fold the piece and sew around the edge.
- Carefully turn the slippers inside out.
- Make another slipper in the same way.
If desired, you can add a lining. To do this, make a pair of thin fabric slippers in the same way and sew the two pieces together.
Slippers from an old sweater
You can make slippers from an old sweater with your own hands. Patterns are not needed for them, it is enough just to have a foot pattern.
Sewing workshop:
- Take an old sweater and cut off the sleeves.
- Fold the sweater and attach the pattern to it.
- Circle the pattern and cut out the soles of future slippers. In total, four such parts are needed.
- Sweep two parts of the sole together. This will make the slippers thicker.
- Sew one sleeve and one sole together. This can be done with thick threads with interesting stitches. So you will have a decorative stitch. And you can use simple stitches, then the slippers will need to be turned out.
- Tip or hem the top of each slipper to keep the threads from fraying.

Baby slippers
Of course, a child can make the same slippers as an adult, just a smaller size. But where better to makeinteresting and unusual children's slippers with their own hands. Make patterns based on the child's legs.
Master class on creating children's slippers:
- Cut out three pairs of soles: two from fleece or felt and one from a softer material.
- Cut out one pair of the top piece of the slippers. It should be slightly wider than the sole so that the slipper fits easily on the foot.
- Additionally cut out two pairs of ears and one pair of spouts.
- Cut out the letters "P" and "L" so that the child can distinguish the right slipper from the left one.
- Sew all three insoles together. The soft part should be in the middle.
- Sew a spout in the center to each top of the slippers, embroider eyes or glue buttons on the sides of it, make a mouth.
- Fold the ears in half and also sew them to the top of the slippers, stepping back a little from the edge.
- Sew the top and sole together.
- Sew the letter "L" on one insole and "P" on the other.
Baby slippers are ready!
Slippers-boots
Slippers-felt boots are very comfortable and warm indoor shoes that are ideal for the cold season.
Do-it-yourself slippers pattern (illustration 1) is done as follows:
- Trace your leg on a piece of paper or use a pre-prepared template.
- Draw one rectangle. This detail is the slipper cuff. Therefore, the dimensions of the rectangle depend on the features of your leg:the length should be enough so that the slippers can be easily put on and at the same time not come off, and the width is up to you.
- Draw a piece that looks like half a sock. It should be slightly longer than the sole of the slipper in length.
When the pattern of slippers made by hand is ready, you can start sewing shoes.
- Take a thick fabric (such as felt) and fold it in half.
- Take any piece of fabric (like an old sweater) and fold it into two layers as well.
- Attach a pattern to the fabric and circle it with a marker or chalk.
- Cut out the pieces. In total, you should get the following number of elements: two soles, two cuffs and four "socks".
- Connect one sole and two "socks" with pins.
- Sew or sew details.
- Sew to the top of the slipper cuffs.
- Turn the finished slipper inside out.
- Sew the second "boot" in the same way.

Ballet slippers
You will need the following materials to make these homemade slippers:
- Pattern of the sole (foot pattern) and sides.
- Soft fabric (such as baize or flannel).
- Wadding or other similar filling material.
- Felt or any other fabric for soles (you can buy a special non-slip fabric in a sewing store).
- Elastic band.
- Thread, needle, scissors,marker.
Master class on increasing slippers:
- The pattern of slippers (made by hand) of this type consists of two parts: the sole and the side. Print the finished layout on paper or draw your own.
- Following the pattern of the sole, cut out two pieces of fabric for the insole, filling and sole (illustration 1).
- Cut out two pieces for the top of the slipper. To do this, fold the fabric in half with the front side inward. Attach the pattern to the fold line and circle the outline. You need two such parts (illustration 1).
- Gently fold the two layers of the sole and attach the top piece to them with pins, as in illustration 2.
- Stitch details.
- Make the soft fabric slipper lining in the same way (Figure 3).
- Sew two pieces together. The seam should go in two rows (Figure 4). This is necessary so that you can then insert the elastic. So leave a small hole in the back.
- Turn the shoe inside out and insert the elastic.
- Sew up the hole.
Home slippers are ready! You can decorate the socks with decorative pom-poms, roses or beads.
