Macy Rabbit Booties are adorable little animal-friend booties that will delight your baby girl or boy. Because they use

soft fabrics such as velvet and felt as their main material, these baby booties are appropriate to your baby’s sensitive

skin; they are also comfortable and highly convenient to wear, as they are easy to slip on and off. Macy Rabbit Booties

match with casual wear and are a popular item among expecting parents or parents with new babies. These booties are

perfect as a warm alternative to socks for all babies, and are an excellent idea for a handmade present. Designer’s

Review

Tweaking Option If you want the shoes to have a tighter fit, fold the upper in half widthwise and pin along the heel on a slight angle, starting from the bottom heel corner and ending at about 1/4" from the heel seam at the top (or at the desired spot).

Then, sew along this angled line, rather than sewing along the given heel seam. Repeat this process for the

other upper.

Cut out the Fabric

Draw the patterns directly onto the wrong side of a single layer of fabric. Because there is a right and left

shoe you will need to reverse the sole and upper side pattern when tracing. Also reverse the ear pattern

when tracing. Make sure the right and left pieces are separated to avoid confusion when attaching the

soles. Cut out the exterior and lining. Cut out either the rabbit or cat toe piece. Cut the ear pieces

accordingly. Only cut out the tail piece if you are making the rabbit shoes.

Sew the Upper

Place the wrong side of the inner ear pieces on right side of the outer ear pieces and sew along the edge,

see Picture 1. Sew all four ears. Baste two assembled ear pieces to the exterior upper toe piece with right

sides together as indicated on the pattern, see Picture 2. Pin and sew an exterior upper side piece to the

exterior upper toe piece with right sides together, aligning the straight edges, see Picture 3. Backstitch on

both ends. Sew the other exterior upper side piece to the upper toe in the same manner. From the right

side, the result should look like Picture 4. Repeat this process for the other bootie.

Fold the exterior upper piece in half lengthwise with right sides together. Pin and sew the heel,

backstitching on both ends, see Picture 5. Open the heel seam. Sew the lining uppers and other exterior

upper piece in the same manner.

Flip the lining upper right side out and place the exterior upper on it with right sides together, see Picture 6.

Pin and sew the two pieces together by sewing around the center hole, backstitching on the start and end

points, see Picture 7. Clip the curved seam. Turn the upper piece right side out. Sew the other upper in the

same manner.

Assemble the Upper and Sole Lining

Place the lining upper piece on the lining sole with right sides together, matching their center points. Pin

the toe and heel, then pin around the rest of the sole, clipping the heel seam as needed.

Attach the Exterior Sole Piece

Place the exterior sole piece on the exterior upper with right sides together, matching their center points.

Pin the toe and heel first, see Picture 10. Then pin around the rest of the sole, clipping the heel as needed.

Sew the sole, backstitching on both ends. Leave a 2” gap for turning, see Picture 11. Clip the seams if

necessary. Turn the shoe right side out; pin and stitch the opening closed. Repeat for the other shoe.

Make the tail

Running stitch along the edge of the circular tail piece, see Picture 12. Do not backstitch. Place some

polyester fiberfill on the wrong side of the tail piece, see Picture 13. Pull the thread; sew back and forth and

tie the thread, see Picture 14. Attach the tail to the heel tightly, see Picture 15. Repeat for the other side.

Sew the Eyes and Nose

To draw the eyes and nose on the fabric, cut the markings for the eyes and nose on the pattern. Draw

through the holes using chalk pencil. Using 2 strands of embroidery floss, sew the eyes and nose.

*Because our patterns are on PDF files, the pages may be scaled prior to printing, depending on the

printer and print driver. To ensure that the shoes pattern prints in the correct size, set the margins on

zero before printing the pattern. To do so, select “None” from the “Page Scaling” drop-down list in Acrobat

or Reader’s Print dialog box (Hanyaloglu, 2007).

**The size of the shoes may also be affected by the thickness of your interfacing and/or fabric.

***The length of the shoes may slightly differ according to the shoes’ shape

****The pattern sizes should match the following measurements upon printing:

Heel to Toe Length (in inches)
