I made a version of Simplicity 4940 for a elf dress in the style of Lord of the Rings, but I didn’t have an shoes to go with it. When I saw the Dorothy Ballerina Slippers I knew I could make the perfect elf shoes with scraps from the dress.

What did you do for soles? Are you able to walk outside with these?

These are the business! Just what I’m looking for, too!
