Wasting Time?!

Maybe the others will think I was just wasting time to do my own shoes in these busiest time, but for me this process helps lots, from pattern cutting to Lasting.

In the first pattern cutting lesson, I was like "Whats the trimming allowance? Whats the folding edge? Whats the underlay?" -_- I forgot EVERYTHING!! So doing a pair of simple court shoes is really a revision for me.

During the making part, I did did wrong:

1, Should not did the counter part like this again, as it will have wrinkles easily when lasting. Do other piece to go over it.

2, Toe puff (softer and thinner) and stiffener (harder and thicker).

3. Chose leather carefully, some leathers crack easily when closing.

4, Handle the shoe carefully during making as the upper may damage while lasting.

And the most important thing is DO EVERY STEP SLOWLY, CANT RUSH!!!!
