Great tutorial - thank you! Vilene iron on fusible interfacing does not require a damp cloth for application - I do usually cover my ironing board and place a dry cloth over my fabric to prevent any tiny overcut edges sticking to my iron or ironing board cover though ☺️
Thank you for the tip! I'll definitely look up Vilene interfacing! Also, I love the tip about covering your ironing board- that's always been a problem for me even with regular interfacing and I never even thought about covering the ironing board! 🤦♀️
@@AdoptYourClothes no problem- I think the correct spelling is Vlieseline … I noticed my error when cutting my interfacing out yesterday. I used Vliseseline F220 in my espadrilles. I made the 5 to 5.5 with a size 5 sole and they will not stay on the back of my feet at all! I have a very sore finger and thumb…. and a pair of shoes that don’t fit! I’m going to see if I can stitch some elastic across the back - or maybe attach some ribbon/ties 😊
Awww that's sad that yours don't fit at all! Mine were definitely slightly loose at the heel, but not loose enough that I can't wear them... I just couldn't go speed walking in them! 🤣 I like the idea of ankle ties! I feel like that would be really cute and would definitely help them stay on better!
I'd suggest that people cut a test shoe out of scrap fabric first. I have high arches and the original pattern was way too tight on my foot, I had to add about an inch to the top of the shoe to fit my foot. I imagine if you have narrow or flatter feet you might find the pattern too large so making a practice one first will save you frustation and fabric.
I wonder why those shoes are so beautiful. Turn out there is blood sacrifice involved in the process. That is definitely necessary for any incredible shoemaking.
Great fabric, great tutorial, great job, beautiful espadrilles ❤
🤩 shoes! I’m excited to see a blog on how they have held up a month from now.
That's a really great idea!

donde puedo comprar los moldes o patrones ? gracias
I just steam interfacing because it sucks trying to use the damp cloth lol. Works great that way.
Great idea!
