You can never have too many shoes, but you can often have too little space! Piling your shoes up together can damage them, but this little bag will make sure they stay pristine. It would be ideal for that special pair you fear ever having to replace. If you’re making a bag for a friend, why not create a lovely shoe-inspired card to go with it?
Make a shoe bag
Cut 19cm x 35cm of Spice Garden fabric, 14cm x 35cm of plain cream cotton, 14cm x 35cm of Spice Petals, and two strips of Enchant Floral, measuring 8cm x 14cm each. Pin an Enchant Floral piece on top of the plain fabric at each of its short ends, keeping right sides together. Stitch, leaving a 1cm seam allowance throughout, and press. Pin Spice Garden to the top and Spice Petals to the bottom, stitch and press seams open.
Download the templates and print out. Transfer the heeled shoe and word decoration onto the plain fabric, stitch over the lines in navy thread and press on the reverse. Stitch an outline and add embellishment to the shoe using sequins and flowers.
For the back of the bag, cut 33cm x 35cm of Spice Garden and 13cm x 35cm of Spice Petals. Stitch right sides together and press the seam open. Pin the front and back of the bag right side
