Polka Dot Ankle Wraps Dritz Espadrilles
Categories: Fashion Accessories, Accessory
Dritz created a new espadrille shoe line, and offered the Fairfield World Master Makers a set of supplies to create our own espadrille shoes. Our challenge was to add to or alter the shoe design, using a Fairfield World supply. I love espadrilles and sandals that wrap around my leg. There is something seductive and secure about having straps that wrap. I used Fairfield World Soften Fusible Interfacing on black with white polka dot cotton to create soft flexible straps. I chose black with white polka dots for my outer and straps, and black for my lining fabric , but the Dritz outer fashion and lining fabrics come in other colors and patterns. You’re welcome to chose other fabrics, that suit your style. I know I’ll get more wear out of black and white shoes than any colors.
