New Baby Bootie Naming Contest

I am in the process of making a new baby bootie pattern.

Come join me on Facebook and post your idea for a name for this new bootie.
http://www.facebook.com/pages/Lil-Baby-Thangs/66454923297

Every name you submit will be voted on and the winning name will be used on the pattern.

Enter as many names as you'd like.

The person who submits the winning name will receive "The First, Official Pattern", with autograph and a custom handmade pair of booties.


Pictured are booties made from Minky.
I made these for my grand-babies when they were born. They are twins, 1 boy and 1 girl, so I made a pink pair and a blue pair.
It will be a few weeks until the pattern is completed and ready for sale.

New Baby Bootie Design Naming Contest

I had an idea for a new baby bootie a few days ago.

It came in the form of looking at other peoples booties on the web (checking out the competition). There was a pair I couldn't quite make out the picture on and I got as close as I could. I finally figured out that one bootie was vertical and the other one was right on top of it only horizontal, like a t. But in the process of trying to figure out what kind of booties they were, I got an idea, kind of from the blurred picture.

I drew out my idea so I wouldn't forget and went to bed. I couldn't sleep, as my mind kept going over every detail on how to make it.

Here is the result of all that brain power...Lol

Presenting......drum roll.....Please......

Prop Plane / Pilot Booties / Your guess is a good as mine.

These lil' airplanes must have been kept in an old barn. They are just covered in spiderwebs. You can't even see through the cockpit windshield. They seem to be brand new and even have a soft flannel lining so little feet feel cozy in them. The pinwheel propeller is sewn on and the wings are securely sewn in. The elastic in the back is sewn in-between the layers of fabric so the bootie will stay on and be comfy. The fabrics are cotton.

Oops, one crashed...
