Step Into Fun: Sew a Plush Shoe! 👟

 

Who says shoes are just for your feet? This plush shoe sewing pattern is ready to step up your sewing game—no laces required! Measuring a chunky 10" wide at the bottom, 6" tall, and 4" wide at the top, this softie is perfect for playrooms, classrooms, and quirky décor. It’s equal parts toy, prop, and conversation starter.

 
 

Why We Love It ❤️

  • It’s a quick sew—great for beginners.

  • The oversized shape makes it a total show-stopper.

  • Customizable in any color or fabric (sneaker red, pastel pink, or even rainbow tie-dye).

  • A fun stash-buster for fleece, felt, cotton, or minky.

Supplies You’ll Need 🧵

Here are some of my favorite go-to tools and fabrics (affiliate links included):

  • Fleece Fabric – Soft and forgiving, perfect for plushies. Try solid colors or fun prints. Shop fleece on Amazon

  • Poly-Fil Stuffing – My absolute must-have for every plush project. Get it here

  • Crochet thread - To create the shoe laces and the adorable smile. Shop here

  • Fabric Scissors or Rotary Cutter – Sharp cuts make a huge difference. Check out this rotary cutter set

  • Pins & Clips – To keep those curves in check. I recommend these

  • Wash-Away Fabric Tape – Great for holding seams without pins. Grab it here

  • Walking Foot (optional but amazing for plush sewing). Find it here

Ideas for Using Your Plush Shoe

  • Back-to-School Prop: Stitch one up in school colors for a classroom mascot.

  • Playroom Fun: Kids will love using it in pretend play (giant shoe house, anyone?).

  • Photo Prop: Perfect for storytime, nursery photos, or back-to-school pics.

  • Sewing Room Décor: Why not keep a plush shoe on your shelf as your new "sole mate"? 😉

 

Tips for Sewing Success

  • Go slow around curves—shoes have plenty!

  • Stuff firmly at the toe and heel to keep the shoe shape.

  • Add embellishments: laces from ribbon, faux stitching with embroidery floss, or even buttons for eyelets.
