Moon Booties sewing pattern

GHT DURABLE TECHNICAL BOOTIES: Main outer fabric #1 - Light-weight wind-breaker like fabrics such as nylong or polyester rip stop or taffeta; waterproof and breathable fabrics such as Gortex (or similar brand). Reinforcement fabric #2 (Sole & Last) - Sturdy cordura pack cloth (coated if you want water repellency). Lining fabric #3 - Light-weight, synthetic fabrics such as nylon taffeta, supplex or other wind-breaker like fabrics. You can also use the same fabric #1 that you used for the main outer if it isn't too stiff. Insulation/ Batting - Hi-loft, polyester quilt batting that is 1/2"-3/4" (13mm-19mm) thick (1/2"/13mm for kids sizes). Foam inner sole - 3/8"(10mm) thick roll foam (preferably salvaged or upcycled from used packing materials or 3/8"(10mm) thick neoprene foam (peel and stick option is best if purchasing rather than recycling). SCRAP BUSTING NATURAL FIBER BOOTIES - These tend to be heavier and less lofty but can be really fun in printed fabrics. Great for kids booties. We love a good scrap-buster!
