Precious Feet




Who doesn't love an adorable pair of baby booties? Not me, that's for sure.
So when I found
a pattern for the perfect little mary janes I immediately wanted to make them. My mind started reeling with color combinations, and embellishment ideas.

Here are a few of my first pairs. I just love how
they've turned out! I will definitely be making more of these cuties, since I've still got lots of ideas to bring to life.
