At 75 years old my mom is finally wearing her first pair of flip flops! I made them for her so that they fit her very thin (AAAA) foot. She loves the feel since I used the softest cotton I could find to make the straps. Now she wants another pair for this year and a few more to put away for next summer!

These are the ones I made for myself last night using my old ones just to see how they would come out. I used buttons under the sole where the old tops came through.
