A Fine and Warm Pair of Slippers From a Woolen Blanket

My old slippers fell apart, so I needed to get some new ones. But since I had some left over materials from older projects, i decided to sew my own...  

materials:
pieces of a woolen blanket, some leftovers from a gym-matress and some pieces of camouflage canvas
a sewing machine
needles
scissors
piece of cardboard
paper, edding, chalk

 Outline the needed pieces (sole and upper part) on paper, make them symmetric and cut them out. For the sole I planned to make two pieces to create an overlap to be able to turn the whole thing inside out after sewing.

Place the paper on the fabric and copy all parts with edding or chalk onto the materials. After that: cut!
For the upper part of the slipper I took the fabric double to get fold as the edge.

 Figure out how to pin everything together and then sew!

 Turn the whole thing inside out (or should I better say inside in, or maybe outside out...?)
The piece of cardboard helps a lot to fill in the inner-sole (wich I cut out of an old gym-matress)

 

My girlfriend liked my slippers very much and asked for a pair for herself. So I decided to make her a pair for valentines day… :-)
