[Sketch, Cut, Hold In Place, Scrap and ReDo]

Natalie has decided that the slippers Christopher got me last Christmas are the coolest things on the planet.  She walks around wearing them most days and calls them 'Renee's Boots that are Comfy' -- Soooooo for Christmas (and maybe even her birthday if I can get them done quick enough!), I am making her a pair!  From scratch.  [Insert headache]

I've designed a pattern using my own very scientific method that I call S.C.H.I.P.S.A.R.D.

After about 5 tries, I think I reached a pattern that will stand the test of a soon-to-be 5 year old... or, at least keep her happy for the 10 minutes after she rips off the wrapping paper and puts them on.

Pictures will come tomorrow!  I promise!
