I received my copy of Parent:Wise today. Last month I contacted them about testing one of my patterns for their "Cool or Crummy" column. I didn't expect to end up in the Crummy list, but you just never know. Not a peep out of anyone, so I had no clue until I picked it up today. And it's wonderful.
Keep in mind that the following text occupies about 1/6 of a page and has a color photos of my products on it as well. And it's FREE. Yeah!
Here is their comment on my pattern(s) in it's entirety:
Soft-Sole Shoe & Boot Patterns
www.MakeThemYouself.com -- $9
You know those adorable soft-soled leather baby shoes with the cute designs -- the ones that cost an arm and a leg? Well, why not make your own and give'em away to your favorite mama friends for the holidays? Local mama, Misty Marquardt, has designed several simple patterns that make it easy to sew your own leather baby shoes and boots. When finished, the shoes look exactly like the expensive ones you buy in the fancy baby stores -- actually, even better, because you can customize the designs. If you use recycled leather (for instance, buying a used leather jacket at a thrift store) you can make tons of shoes very inexpensively. Misty's patterns are cheap, can be sent to you via email, and are easy to follow, even in you're not an expert seamstress. She has a slew of other patterns available, too (including mama shoes, nursing pillows, shopping cart covers and nursing cover ups), so get out your sewing machine and start whipping up some gifts!
