I Sewed Slippers
. . for Bella. The pattern is from Heather Ross's Weekend Sewing, a beautifully-photographed-but-much-reviled book. Sadly, I can't recommend the pattern as the instructions were not the best and (grr) the sizing was *way* off. However, these corduroy and wool felt slippers will do for running around the dorm at vocal camp next week!

Oh! I just ordered this book today! I have heard that there are tons of issues with it, but I could not resist! The lounge pants must be mine. Hopefully they will fit when finished! =) Very cute slippers, even with the problems.
Much reviled? I haven't looked at reviews. We have it at the library, but I haven't been tempted to buy it for myself. Still, your slippers are cute, and it's always fun to make something new. I'll have to go read what people are saying about the book.

Very adorable - nice job, Anna!
Hope Bella has lots of fun and new learning experiences at camp!
I have this book and couldn't agree more with your description.
The slippers are charming, great job on making it work despite the pattern flaws!
I want that book so much- but the reviews stop me every time. Very cute slippers!
I tried this pattern awhile back - I thought it was me!! Totally not worth the effort.
so pretty (and glad to know about the book - just to use it for inspiration)
