UGG pattern for kids

Kids, like adults, need comfortable, practical shoes. UGG boots meet these requirements.

What are UGG boots?

Uggs are traditional shoes made from sheep's fur. Their homeland is Australia.

Historically, they were sewn from whole skins - with the fur on the inside and the suede part on the outside. In such shoes it is not cold in winter and not hot in summer, the temperature is maintained equal to body temperature.

What are UGG boots made of?

In addition to sheepskin, the most common material for ugg boots, they use:

• Faux fur, suede.
• Leather and leather substitutes.
• Thick knitwear.
• Felt.
• Knitted fabric.

Advice! If you have an old sheepskin coat, it will make boots for the whole family.

Features of UGG boots

Since this type of shoe is very comfortable, there is a temptation to wear only them, every day, all day.

But you need to remember a few things:

• Ugg boots do not have a heel, their sole is absolutely flat, and wearing them all day is problematic.
• Shoes made of natural sheepskin wear out a lot, make sure that your baby's gait is firm.

Remember that the comfort of these shoes will more than compensate for these small shortcomings.

Subtleties of working with sheepskin

High-quality sheepskins are not much more difficult to work with than fabric.

The main thing is precision in work and durable tools:

• The cutting is carried out along the suede side, using disappearing chalk, a ballpoint pen or a soft pencil.
• They first find all the worn, thin places on the skin and try to avoid them.
• The sheepskin is cut with a sharp stationery knife or razor blade, preferably in the air, cutting through only the flesh, leaving the fur pile untouched.
• It is better not to rip sheepskin and not to put unnecessary seams on it. For this reason, it is better to refuse to estimate the details.
• Old Singer machines, as well as Soviet machines, such as Podolsk, do an excellent job with thick skins. We use a needle No. 120, or a special triangular needle for leather.
• Leather and suede specialists recommend a Teflon-coated machine foot, and folk craftsmen recommend sewing on thin paper placed on top of the sheepskin. The running of the machine will be smooth and the stitches will be neat.

Fur ankle boots - uggs

Children's ankle boots are made from sheepskin, with the fur placed on the inside. The pattern is approximate and universal, but the proportions are respected. We measure the length of the child’s foot, and accordingly, we attach the sizes of other parts. Using this pattern you can sew ankle boots from sizes 20 to 38.

Pattern details:

• Bootleg – 2 parts.
• Sole – 2 parts.
• Vamp – 2 parts.

Required:

• Sheepskin, preferably soft, well-made.
• Matching and contrasting threads for finishing.
• Awl.
• Thick needle.

Progress:

• We make a paper pattern.
• We cut out the details.
• Sew using a furrier's stitch (over the edge).
• If you decide to use ankle boots on the street, cut out the sole from thick rubber, then “plant” it with glue. Unicum, Moment, and rubber glue will come in handy.

Advice! If you plan for your child to walk in the snow wearing UGG boots, then use the boot of an old felt boot as a sole - the boots will not slip.

• We sew the sections with decorative threads.
• We decorate as desired.
• Let's try it on.

Uggs are one-piece made of two parts without a vamp

Ugg boots can be made of leather with a lining or made of fur, like northern torbas. You can adjust the instep so that it is easy for a small foot to get into the boot.

• Suede, can be artificial for lining (optional).
• Matching and contrasting threads for finishing.

Pattern details:

• Half of a boot – 2 parts.
• Sole – 2 parts.

• If you decide to make it on a lining, then duplicate the parts onto the lining material.
• All seams - both on the lining and on the skin - should “look” at each other.
• Turn the top section of leather inside out and stitch 0.7 cm.

Decorating ugg boots

Since we are sewing ugg boots for small children, the main decoration rule is that the decorative details should not fall into children’s hands.

Possible options for decorative finishing of ugg boots:

• Volumetric pompoms, shuttlecocks, fur droplets, firmly sewn.
• Various embroidery, satin stitch, cross stitch, goat stitch look original.
• Appliques are best sewn rather than glued.
• Chevrons.
• Painting with acrylic paints.

Do-it-yourself ugg boots will be a great gift for a baby, because you can’t have too many warm shoes.
