Baby Moccasins

Remember earlier this year when Phil and I worked on some prototypes for making baby moccasins? We finally came up with a shoe we were happy with but needed to try them out on a baby. After Audrey came along we realized that our design didn't stay on baby feet very well, so it was back to the drawing board to find something that actually stayed on.

We're really happy with the moccasins! Audrey is a little enamored with them too. She likes to stare at her feet and tries to grab the shoes. Cute!







We have two designs, with fringe and without.
The sizes range from 6 weeks-12 months.

Each moccasin is hand cut from recycled leather and hand-stitched. The soles are machine stitched for reinforcement.

We've decided to sell a limited number of these moccasins initially at a special price of 30 dollars (plus shipping). Please email me at taliavanderwel(at)gmail(dot)com if you are interested!

Baby Moccassins

We've been busy around here and we've finished the final prototype for our baby moccasins!

After lots and lots of mockups, stitching and restitching, we finally have a pattern that we're ready to go forward with! We'll start production and sizing soon. I'm so excited! Stay tuned!

P.S. - Why is anything miniature SO MUCH cuter than its bigger size?

Baby Moccasins

This weekend the Mister and I crafted up a storm. I have a living room with scraps of thread, leather, and fabric everywhere to prove it. It looks like a craft store exploded in my house.

Our mission? To make the perfect little baby moccasins.

Remember the two huge grocery bags of scrap leather we bought last year?

Well, we're finally working up the prototypes for our first moccasins! I'm so excited! Phil drafted up the pattern while I sewed away at the machine and together we worked out the kinks in the pattern and are coming up with a million ideas for the little shoes.

Here's a sneak peek at what we are working up!





The first prototypes are drafted into patterns, then sewn in denim to see what it will look like. After that we go back to the pattern and make any tweaks so we can make that perfect little shoe.

We plan on having a little line of baby moccasins in different colors and sizes with a couple variations on the styles too. I can't wait to share more soon! Stay tuned.
