In my old post, i have provide the way to wrap shoes,and today, i just wanna talk about the bootscovers making in cosplay:
Steps for non-strechy method:
1.Prepare a pair of shoes/boots which have the shape of sole/heel/front that you like firstly.
2.Get some muslin/cheap fabric,then cut them into two pieces,which matches the rough size of the already finished shoes/boots.Leave some extra for the next seam allowance in case.
3.Put on your shoes/boots,choose one piece of the finished fabric and place it on either side of your leg.Then begin to pin,making necessart seams down the front and back.Be sure that the seams must be straight and the fabric fits for your leg exactly(unless you’re making an oversized boot).Once you’ve got the correct boot shape,use a pen to mark where the seams are on both sides,also remember to mark where the bottom of cover to be.Then pins can be removed.
