FREE CINCH TOP SHOEMAKING BOOK




This book has directions and patterns for making shoes from baby size 3 to woman size 10 (you can enlarge the size 10 patterns on a photocopy machine to create larger-size patterns)..I call them "cinch-tops" because they all have a tie or elastic around the topline to hold the shoe close against the foot.

I am offering this book at no cost because I realize it needs revision, but it will take a while before I am able to do it.

I'll read through this book so I can create an "update" page so you aren't struggling with directions or a pattern that I now realize should be changed. Please sign up for my blog if you want notification of when I post updates.


I would greatly appreciate receiving feedback on how these patterns are working for you - comments or questions are welcomed. Just like I see on recipe blogs, perhaps you will have a tip on how to do some process in a better way, or perhaps you have information on where to purchase a needed tool.. Perhaps you can point out a pattern that has one less stitch hole in the upper than there is in the sole, the "bane of my existence!"


May you benefit from engaging with this book..
