Those are so pretty! I'd rather wear spats like those than the clunky looking thick-soled jobs I see a lot of. Great job as always!

Gee, I didn't make these girls. This was a picture of the designer's spats. I wish I did have them made already. That would be a great gift for christmas. She just mentioned them yesterday in an email to me and I thought maybe someone had made them and could direct me to where they got thier pattern.

Those are much prettier than the ones I wore in bootcamp!

I remember them from movies from the 20's & 30's. I guess what's old is new again!

I didn't realize they were back in style. I guess things really do come around every hundred years or so!

Reminds me of marching band uniforms back in the 50s.
