I’m
quite pleased with how it turned out and Ted likes it, too.

Monday Morning Star Count - Finished Shoe Bag
In
Japan, you frequently have to take your shoes off when you go inside offices or
community centers or other places. There
will be slippers for you to wear, but I feel better about wearing my own
slippers rather than some that a hundred other people have worn. I made myself a slipper bag to carry my slippers
some time ago and it can be seen here. I
felt kind of bad when I saw Ted’s slippers in a plastic bag when we went
somewhere recently, so I decided to make a bag for him. The outside is made from a kimono I bought at
the second hand store, the inside is a bali print I brought from the US. The
hexagon squirrels cover the seam. It has
a square bottom, a drawstring top, and no exposed seams.

You go in style now!
A great idea! Often the slippers offered to visitors are a wee bit too small for 'gajin' feet! It is interesting to see the hexagon pattern in the kimono fabric.
This is so good! You have so many useful ideas.
Aha (spelling?) I wondered what you would do with those hexie squirrels. I see you put them to good use. The kimono fabric is beautiful.
