Not sure what the weather is like in your neck of the woods, but it is definitely chilly here – so it’s still slipper season. Of course the older I get – I believe it is slipper season year round for me.
We are teaching virtual sewing classes at the Puyallup Sew Expo this year – and two of them are slipper classes. Click below for a link to the catalog – The event is running from February 24th to the 28th. They have all kinds of cool classes out there – and because it is virtual I have had people sign up from as far away as Maine, Florida and even Juneau, Alaska. It will definitely be a new experience for us.
I have been busy cutting new kits from new fabrics for the classes and thought I should offer them to you too!
I will be teaching the suede bottom slippers class twice. This is the version with a bonded suede bottom (which means suede on the bottom and a soft like lamb’s fleece on the inside), soft cuddle top and a fun trim around your ankle. I just posted 8 new versions out on the website. The kits are just $15 each and it includes all the fabric you will need – and the pattern that’s included will fit women’s size 5 to 11. You can make them narrower just by changing the size of the seam allowance.
Click on any of the buttons in the box below to see the kits we have available.
I found a new source for the bonded cuddle llama suede so I was able to once again offer the full suede versions in a kit. With these – you just sew up the seam on the back – and then sew the sole to the top – super easy!
i also cut a bunch of new kits for our sleeper slipper version. This is the version that is lined – I am now lining them with really warm fuzzy fabrics so they will keep your feet even warmer.

And these slippers are fully reversible – so you can turn them inside out for a new look! Or if you are like me – and not ready to wash them yet.
We have video tutorials out on the McKay Manor Muser channel if you’d like to watch how the slippers go together – we have one for the suede bottom slippers and one for the reversible sleeper slipper. Enjoy!
Find ways to stay warm and cozy!
