[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Moccasin students

Sun Mar 21 18:14:40 UTC 2021

Hi Joyce, we hope and pray that you feel better soon.
Terry put the mocasons together, and, from what I have seen of them, they look "Stinking Cute."
Sorry Renae, I borrowed your line, big smile.
I have heard that some folks get more of a reaction from the second shot than they did from the first one.
I had a sore arm after the first shot, but, the day after that shot, Terry, Sophie and I took a long walk around the complex The shot was in my left arm.

Also that little flap, goes on the outside, before lacing that area.  You are going through  3 layers of lether!
Tricky to line up!

As I understand it, the X on the heel goes on the inside, so the knots are on the outside.

I hope you feel better soon.
I got my second shot on Thursday. I’ve noticed a lot of tiredness at various times.
Also, my kit came too late for the 1st class, and I wasn’t exactly sure how to put the kit together, but I explored it on my own. I found it hard to tell the difference between the diamond and circular holes, so for the toe area, what I did was line up the oval piece of leather with the padding of the shoe, in the toe area, found the last hold on the oval piece, to either side of the toe and from there, found a hole on the side of the shoe that matched up with the toe hole. In this way, I stitched up the toe, but maybe I didn’t do it right because the 4 large holes across the center are still lonely since I didn’t put the laces through them.
For the heel, I put the laces through the bottom 2 holes and 3 pieces of leather from the inside out. Then I made a crisscross of the laces and put the ends through from the outside in and stitched up the sides from there and tied the finishing knots once I went through all the holes. So, the knots I tied to finish off the toe area and the knots I tied at the sides of the shoe are basically right next to each other.  I wear a size 6, and I was happily surprised to find that they fit me comfortably.
I hope this didn’t confuse you and that some of it made sense. Now I’m curious to see how it is actually supposed to be done.
Best,
Valerie
