Baby booties are a quick, fun project and make perfect use of your fabric scraps that are too small for everything else. That fact that it takes very little fabric is probably my favorite part about this project and you end up with the cutest booties that all the other babies and their parents will surely envy.
In this tutorial, we show you how to create two of the four bootie styles, designed by Ellie Mae, found in this envelope. You can watch how to create both of them or, if you're interested in just one, you'll have an option inside the video to click on the preferred shoe of your choice. One of these styles will be sure to suit your needs and they make such lovely baby gifts.
Please note that the notions ask for size 3/8” grommets. I created the medium size booties and found these grommets to be too large. I ended up using 5/32” eyelets and I found it to work perfectly, even with a 3/8” width ribbon. If you've never used eyelets or grommets before, make sure you purchase the kit that comes with the tool to help you install it. In addition to the tool, you will also need a hammer or mallet.
The booties are adorable! I need to make a few pairs of these for upcoming baby showers!!
These are just precious. I can just imagine the different materials to make these!
Can’t wait to make these. They’re really cute and look more comfortable than any of the other bootie patterns I have.
Precious! And I have just the Lil’ Man in my home to make these for too! Thanks. 🙂
These are super cute. They would be great to make and donate as a charity item for our local Life Care Center. New to your site and love your tutorials. They will move my sewing to new dimensions. Thanks.

Love these little booties! I’ve got a little man due in a few months and these would be perfect!
These are so cute. They would be perfect for my new granddaughter, who is due to arrive in May!!!
