The author of this book is fairly well known among people who make dolls and/or their shoes. This book not only includes 7 makeable patterns for different kinds of shoes, it also helps you to choose the style for your particular doll. Tells you about the materials and shows you how to make shoes in fabric as well as leather.. It shows you the different ways to trim shoes and how to make that elusive rosette. Most people don't own a last(A last is a sole shaped form that you can finish the shoes upon), so the author has shown how to use simple clothespins to finish. The seven patterns included in this book cover most of the styles you would want for either a german or French doll..there are 2 sizes for each. And finally, the price is right.. New the book is only 5.95.
I bought a second book to give away. Lots of great I’m formation in this book.
