Cloth Thongs for inside use



Would you like to make some of these?  Lady Harvantine calls them Summer Slippers, but for the sake of this blog lets just call them inside thongs. The fabric she used looks Japanese and I must say they look elegant and refined.  Yes, even for thongs.  All you need a a gorgeous fat quarter, a small amount for fabric for backing, a bit of bias binding or a scrap fabric to make the straps, a bit of polyester batting and enough vinyl to comfortably stand on (you'll be tracing around a set of your thongs onto your vinyl)  A bit of a handful of supplies but trust me these are getting good reviews.  A suggestion is to take these to wear when getting a pedicure insted of wearing the ones the shop supplies, because who wants to wear communal thongs? Ok ok  enough talk.  Tutorial here.  Happy Stitching!
