Quilters love fat quarters. They love to buy them and they love to use them. The 9 slipper patterns in this book are made from fat quarters as are the matching interchangeable clips and the small tote, just big enough to hold a pair of slippers for that special night away from home. A variety of slippers are included: Mary Janes, slip-on summer slippers, Asian flower slippers, boot slippers, espadrille slippers, square-toed slippers, everyday slippers and more. With all the interchangeable clips and the tote, there are more than 25 designs given. Instructions for adding no-skid "rubber" to the bottom are also included.

This has to be one of the best ways to use your fat quarters. Make comfortable slippers from eight designs, plus 5 interchangeable clips to decorate your slippers and one slipper tote. Full size patterns are given in small, medium and large sizes. The designs range from slip ons to espadrilles. I love the Asian flower slippers. This is a neat little book with great photography, easy to follow instructions and something you can wear the same day as they don't take long to make. The patterns should be easy to adjust to your size.-KarenPlatt.co.uk Making footwear of any type sounds like something only a trained shoemaker would do, but take a look at this book and discover that it isn't actually all that difficult. Make slippers for yourself and everybody on your gift list! This book has certainly solved at least one present problem for me as I wonder what to get for hard-to-please types. There are eight pairs of slippers in here and five designs for clips to decorate them with. Styles range from a bootee suitable for colder weather to espadrilles that tie around the ankles with ribbons, slippers with bows or frills, plain Mary Janes that fold up small and a sachet to put them in for travelling. The patterns are printed at the back and come in three sizes, ranging from 5/6 up to 9/10, with women's feet in mind but the canny pattern maker can change these without too much trouble and a dummy run in calico. Quantities of fabric are given in fat quarters, and the photographs show some of the lovely cottons that a quilting emporium sells. Of course you can make them in other fabrics too and with leftover scraps, making this a fun way of being green and recycling unused fabric. A total beginner at sewing might be better starting with something else, but anybody who is au fait with sewing terms and has a bit of dressmaking experience behind them shouldn't have too much trouble. The instructions are clear with simple, helpful diagrams and nothing takes too long to make up. This is definitely a book for the keeper shelf.-Myshelf.com
