Shoes of comfort

 Attempting comfortable soft shoes to stand in 10 hrs



Soft leather from the leather bin

at www.Gstreetfabrics.com vinyl with cork side for bottom of inside shoes and espridrilles bottom from Etsy with Grocery or Pharmacy that sells Dr Scholls inserts for the inside.



Bottoms

Cork will face down, this a soft vinyl-caramel colored with cork back

Foam insert cut to size

Dr Scholls Arch Support soft insert cushioning

Bought two soft skins- to make matching clutch and or bag of same.  Thinking style will be a full shoe cover with cross over straps that are sewn in with elastic back to slide shoe on.
I ordered some shoe glue.  I have a palm thimble and was going to sew it, but I think I would like to glue the bottom on and maybe hand sew it with a blanket stitch for design element only.  This leather is so soft and it feels so good on my foot.  I am going to use some elastic in the back and velcro for the strap wrapping.  (I am still thinking!?)

Don't forget using your leftovers....


The plan for the leftovers is to sew all the little pieces together and make a clutch, a purse and a little zippered change purse.
