Sewing Summer Sportswear Continues! Retro Sneakers Sew-Along

What item is an essential part of any sporty summer wardrobe? Sneakers, of course! Follow along in this installment as I show you how to make the Retro Sneakers for 18-inch dolls.

 

 

 

I love this shoe pattern! It goes together perfectly and the shoes fit so well every time! If you haven't tried making shoes yet, I encourage you to give this one a try! Maybe even pair it with your new Match Maker Bubble Dress or Souvenir Jersey!

  • The pattern featured is the QTπ Pattern Co Retro Sneakers (free for SWC members, find it in the Bonus section)
  • The shoes are assembled following the instructions in the pattern with a few slight modifications: Elastic trim is used in place of the "Outer Sole Wrap" pattern piece.
