HELLO FELLOW NEEDLEWORKER AND FRIENDS
Greetings to everyone, I hope this meet you well, I'll love to say happy mother's day to all mother's in the Needleworkmonday Community and hive blockchain at large, today I'll love to share with the boots meant for my clients twins son's birthday I made some days ago.
In my last post I talked about how a client visited my store due to the fact that the first boot in my showcase attracted him, and he as that I make something gorgeous for his son's whose birthday will be coming up this week.
The order came during the time when I and my partner were worried about the lack of work in the store after the Eid celebration, some this project was a blessing in disguise, a it answers our prayers for work and as well brings in huge cash base on the money the clients agree to pay.
Since I've down this before, I had little problem achieving the new boots project, though this was gonna be another style different from the one I made earlier, and Though the man said he wanted the same style for both of the son, he said I should use make sure they could still distinguish which is which between the boots, so it won't cause issues between them like that sometimes have.
This lead lead me into buying different outsole, and upper material, which will certainly make it easy to differentiate from each other despite looking so alike.

MAKING PROCESSES
Build a shoe requires a patient's and accurate measurement, because with a fault measuring and cutting, then the shoe will surely have a bad shape, so I first cut the pattern on a paper, then placed the patterns on my materials, then cut them out, after that I placed the cut materials on a linning and cut them out as well, so the shoe body will be firm and tick.
Once all the parts of the upper was completely cut, I cut out the insole and set the outsole aside, I also apply guy to the linning of the insole and join them together.
And then place it on the outsole.
- I Punch holes on the upper, inserted the eyelets into the holes, and which I sew all the parts of the upper.
Next I rub gum on the edges of the upper and join them together till they form the shape of a boots.
Once they were all attached, I lase the boots and place it inside the shoe last to check if it's perfect.
- To last the boots, I first nail the insole to the shoe last, and then place the shoe last into the upper again, and then start the lasing process.
I run gum on the insole and the last the upper on it with the lasing plier.
- Almost getting to the final process, I grinded the upper and the outsole on the grinder, then I cut the outsole to the shape of the insole before joining it together with the upper of the both.
And lastly, I rub gum on the outsole and the upper that as been joined to the insole, then let it dry for about 3 minutes, before joining them together, I also apply super glue around the edges for firmness and hit it with hammer.
And here are the twins boots looking so elegant and as well gorgeous.

The boots as been delivered to the father of the twins, and he said his wife will construct a beautiful box where the boots will be placed and then suprise them with it on their birthday.
Thanks for coming with me thus far, see you in my next project, have a blessed and productive week ahead.
