{Make old things new again!} Twig & Tale patterns pair wonderfully with recycled fabrics. Look to accidentally shrunken sweaters, woolen skirts or trousers and gently-used leather/corduroy garments for inspiration.

Materials you need at home:
- About a 1/2 yard (50 metre) of fabric for the exterior Heel + Toe
- About a 1/2 yard (50cm) of fabric for the lining Heel + Toe
- About a 1/2 yard (50cm) of fabric for the insole and outer sole combined.
- If making the taller height boots- add an additional 8” (20cm) to your Heel + Toe amounts.
Other Supplies & Notions
- Spool of coordinating thread
- 6-8 Binder clips (approx 1” or 2.5cm) as pins will leave holes in your suede/leather
- You could use small pegs or magic clips
- Elastic, see notes below
- Scrap of ribbon or twill tape for loops
- Leather sewing machine needle if using medium or heavy weight leather for soles
Elastic
- Tie Back boots need up to approx 40” (1m) of elastic for ties. I like to use cord elastic or even lace elastic if you are going for a more feminine look.
- For the internal elastic version you will need approx 8” (20cm) of 1/4” elastic. If you are using wider elastic or using lightweight fabric for the boots, you may need to add another 1-2” (2.5 - 5cm).
