One of my favorite novelty fabric merchant's ships as slow molasses in the winter. I cannot understand why it takes so long for the order to move, but such is life.
In the meantime, winter will be here soon and there is no point in waiting for the first snow to get my Journey Girls boots on the ground!
Expect to see at a minimum of three (3) boot styles: Combat Boot, Riding Boot, and the Wellington Boot (rain boots). The Combat boot will likely have a tall and short style.
While reviewing my own boot collection and googling for some 'human' inspirations, I started sketching and generating a first draft. It is not a bad start, but like drafts go, they often report to you what works and what does not. In my case, the order of piecing together the structure of the boot, is as important as determining when and where to lay the stitching.
I do love the lacing!
Since a sock will likely be worn with the boot, I placed a sock on Hayden's (our model) foot.
I am already taking diligent notes so that I can make the necessary adjustments to move along to Draft 2. I want to make sure that the product you see for purchase is perfected!
