***Please wait after completing your purchase through PayPal, to be redirected by PayPal to your pattern.
You may then save it to your computer and print it.
You will no longer be sent an email with a link or attached pattern... unless for some reason the redirect doesn't work, which has been happening. If you aren't redirected, please email me and I will email the pattern to you as soon as I can.
Here we go...the last one in the 5 Pattern series!
1. Cut out 2 tops and 2 soles of Main fabric and 2 of lining fabric. Cut 2 ankle bands out of ribbing.
2. With right sides together, sew heel seams together on all 4 top pieces.
3. Fold ankle bands in half length-wise and sew seams. Press all seams open, unless you serged them. If serged...when you put the seams together in the next steps, fold seam allowances in opposite directions so the seams will have less bulk. In the ribbing below the seam will twist at the fold.
4. Place 1 main top and 1 lining top with wrong sides together, with the lining on the top.
5. Fold the ribbing in half with wrong sides together.
6. Place the the ankle band (cuff) inside the bootie. Pin in place so the ribbing seams and the back seams are lined up together.
Top view.
7. Stretch and sew ribbing to bootie top. You may zigzag around the seam allowance to finish if you like.
*Tip (Hack)... Tip the bootie on its side so that the pinned edges are next to your presser foot and place your presser foot in the middle on the ribbing and stretch the ribbing while sewing it to the bootie, keeping the bootie's toe out of the way as you sew the seam, it will work a lot easier than if you try to sew it from the outside.
8. Pull the cuff up so it is sticking out of the top.
9. Place soles and lining wrong sides together.
10. Pin soles to bootie with right sides of main fabric together matching toe and heel notches.
11. Sew them together.
12. You may finish the seam with a zigzag if you wish.
13. Turn right-side out.
14. You may fold the cuff down, or not!
15. OK, finish up the other bootie.
Wow! Look at that! You have completed a pair of booties. They look Fabulous!

Alright, here we go with Baby Bootie 4. This tutorial is for the basic pattern. I'll do one with the pinwheel design another time.
1. Cut out 2 Tops, 2 Backs, and 2 Soles from your main fabric. Repeat with your lining fabric.
2. Place 1 main fabric top and 1 lining top right sides together. Do the same with the backs. Sew 1/4" seam across the top of both. (You can do the other bootie too)
3. Turn right-side out and press.
The other side.
4. Sandwich 1/8" wide elastic between the layers of the Back and tacking one end at the notch.
5. Stretch elastic to the other end and pin. Sew across the elastic and tack at the other notch.
The other side.
6. Attach the shoelaces, cording, or ribbon at notches on the right side. Tack inside seam allowance as shown.
7. Fold tops over backs with the right sides of the main fabric and the right sides of the lining fabric together. Pin in Place.
8. Sew the seam.
9. Pin the other side together, the same as above.
10. Sew the seam. I usually back tack the seams at the notches where the ties and elastic meet.
11. Turn the lining side out and pull the laces out through the top.
12. Put the soles together, one main fabric and one lining fabric wrong sides together. Pin sole to bootie with right sides of main fabric together, as shown. Pin at notches first (toe to toe, heel to heel). Work from the side seam and around the heel, then ease in the toe area.
13. Sew the top to the sole starting at the side seam and working around the heel, just like you pinned it together.
14. If desired, zigzag the seam allowance.
15. Turn right side out. Tie the laces and you're done...with one.
Looks good from the bottom too!
OK! Now you can repeat the steps, and finish the other bootie.
There now you have a pair. Cute, aren't they? You're so smart!
