How to Make Simple Indian Moccasins
- 1). Place the left foot directly on top of a piece of suede. Trace around the foot with a piece of chalk, adding 1 inch all around for seam allowance.
- 2). Cut along the chalk lines of the fabric. The resulting fabric piece will be the sole of the shoe.
- 3). Cut out two pieces of suede that are each 3 inches wide and as long as the side of the sole of the shoe. Sew these side pieces to each side of the sole.
- 4). Cut a piece of fabric that is 5 inches long and 3 inches wide. Sew this piece to the back of the sole, curving one of the 5-inch edges to match the curve of the heel of the shoe.
- 5). Cut out a semicircular piece of suede that is 5 inches wide at the base and 3 inches tall in the middle. This will form the toe of the shoe.
- 6). Sew the semicircular piece of suede to the front of the shoe, matching up the curve of the semicircle with the curve of the front of the sole.
- 7). Fold over the raw edges of the shoe 1/4 inch and sew the fold in place. Turn the moccasin right side out and repeat the whole process with the other shoe.
