Spats for a friend
I have made these spats for a friend. Attributes are: exposed brass separating zipper, rubber heel guards, red flannel lining.
Also, a huge glaring pattern mismatch. FUCK! As i was making them i just wasn’t thinking about because usually the spats i make are a solid color or a pattern that doesn’t really need to be matched. so… fuck.
I’m making another pair of cute ones that he can have instead if he wants. a nice tweedy plaid with thai silk lining, brass snaps and a cute button.
My next pair will be ladies green velvet with rounded toe and taller ankles, white pearl buttons and possibly pale pink lining but i havent decided that detail yet.
Also this fucking awesome pink tie material i found at silk road (going out of business sale 20-70% off!) will soon be some ladies spats as well. 
oh yeah, I also just got my new labels in the mail! I do love them so!

Oooh – those are so cute! I’ve been obsessed with spats lately. Maybe I should try making my own.
