Default It's not a quilt, but I thought I'd share!

Finally finished a very belated Christmas gift for my friend's children. Next time I offer to make flannel slippers, I'll remember that each child has TWO feet!!

Oh, yes, I should have posted this too: no, I didn't have a pattern. I traced their feet, added a seam allowance, doubled the flannel for the tops and wrapped it around their feet. Pinned it to the sole, cut around, stitched it on, and made a strip for the back. I added elastic to tops & back, and adjusted each foot separtaely. I'm sure that was clear as mud!!

Sorry, don't have a pattern. I traced their feet, and just kinda winged it from there. Only had trouble with one pair.
