[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Students: Moccasen Class

Sun Mar 7 15:57:11 UTC 2021

I don't think I did it just right, since I did not go through the diamond a second time.  Also, it looks like there 4 holes across the heal flaps, not 3.  I got it done and think I have the correct number of holes to do the trim.  Both are the same and those 2 facts are what matter!
It could be that I am doing a man's slipper and you all are doing a lady's.
Ready for the trim.
I made bows, in the back.  What did the rest of you all, do with the access, in the back?

I'm glad you figured it out.  I have one done, and it came out nice.  I have to look at the directions again to do the other one.

Hi Tracy,

Now this makes sense to me. I think I will now finally be able to get started on the toe!

May God bless you.
