Baby Bootie Pattern

[trikegeoff]

good afternoon all

i have been searching the internet with much gusto looking for a pattern for some baby booties.

i have found many patterns for knitted booties but this is of little use to me.

i have found a pattern for some felt booties but im not sure how how these will transfere to leather (i dont want them to hurt the little ones feet)

does anyone have a pattern or a template that they have made leather booties from? and if so could i use it?

this is a project i have wanted to do for along time, and now with one of the girls in my office expecting i now have an excuse.

your help is much appreciated.

I have been looking also, to no avail!

When my children were little there was a brand called TV Booties. I even made a couple of pair for them.

But I didn't save any patterns, and I can't find them in the hope chest, (tho I ought to look again).

I'm working myself up to taking a hand at doing up a run of toddler size patterns.

I just need some measurements for the basic sizes.

But I don't know where to look.

I think this is a neglected area of the footwear trade.

TLF has their baby moc kits, but I can't help more than that.

I never made booties but I made dozens and dozens of Tandy"s "Baby Mocs". They were really cute. Don't see them on-line or in the catalog anymore.

Geoff,

Here's some old patterns that I have picked up over the years. Hopefully they will be of some help.

Hey Paul,

If you tell me what areas to measure I'm sure my 8 week old daughter wouldn't mind me taking a few measurements for the infant section of the pattern project.
