DIY Boot Tutorial: Moccasin Masterclass:

This DIY boot tutorial  is sponsored by Tandy Leather. 

Their mission is “To teach and inspire the art of leathercrafting, one person, one class, one neighborhood, one community at a time.”  I’m inspired every time I open the catalog.  I want to make so many projects.  This project is one of my favorites and I am glad I can share my tips and tricks from years of experience.

I’m Teri Edmonds and I have been in the shoe industry for over 18 years.  In this tutorial, I demonstrate the Plains Boot Moccasin from Tandy Leather.  As a shoe designer, I have looked for simple patterns that I could do from home.  I liked this pattern so much that I taught courses on it.  I continue to make and sell the boots to my custom order clients.  If you want to learn more about me, visit my About Page.

This course includes a beginner and an advanced boot.  The beginning tutorial follows the instructions provided in the pattern pack.  I adjust the hand stitching some and I prefer mine without the fringe.  The advanced tutorial uses glue and machine stitching instead of hand stitching.  I used my new Janome 3000 stitcher for the project.  I have included a list of the supplies used in this video along with their part numbers for easy ordering.
