What exactly is a flip flop embroidery design? Flip flop embroidery designs are basically beach designs tending to focus more on slippers. This particular set of designs at ‘SewMany’ are applique machine embroidery designs and are designed to match the 5X7 hoop. The information on applique embroidery designs should come in handy to understand the various usages of these patterns.

Just check one of the samples besides this post. What strikes one about the pair of flip flops is the colour patterns which are in striking contrast – making it an attractive couple.

For those who order, you would receive the full color hand smocking plate by Carol with complete instructions to ease your job. All the best!

The Indian shoes were first designed 400 years ago and were called jooti or nagra. Even today, they retain the first position in the world when it comes to the best fashioned footwear. The Indian embroidered shoe is generally made of plain upper leather and the shoe takes the shape of the wearers foot. Have a look at the beaded And embroidered handcrafted leather slippers beside this post which is worn by women. This is studded with beads and the upper portion of the shoe is embroidered with silk thread and decorated with Khasida embroidery. This is generally used as casual wear. You have other varieties of Indian footwear which are adorned with appliqué and bead work. Dying in various colors or fixing brass eyelets has been another way of decorating jooties.

I am doing an analysis of flip flops and footwear of unique varieties and if you have come across anything interesting, do let me know through the contact form below. That would be helpful. Thanks.

There was a contest run called the Florida Sole Beach Bag Contest where the best flip flop embroidery designs came up for recognition. Genia’s designs on her beach bag is outstanding. Genia’s story on how she sewed the embroidery designs on the beach bag is really interesting.

Here is an extract of her email to Larry “The outline of Florida I did myself, along with the lettering using Designer’s Gallery LetterWorks. The bag itself gave me the excuse (like I really needed one) to go fabric hunting. So we, my husband, Mark and Mildred, his Mom, loaded up in the truck and headed out to Pensacola to see what we could find. Crestview is not the biggest town to fabric shop in. With most, all the flip flops were applique embroidery designs and I was on a mission. I managed to get out of town with some really good bargains, came home and sat down and started sewing. I like really bright and unusual color contrast and came up with the combinations that I did. The ones with the fringe flowers is Phyllis’ design. Those are my favorites. It’s real easy to do as long as you use a contrasting bobbin thread, so it can be seen and cut after it’s stitched. Once it’s carefully cut, you pull the top thread back through and fluff the threads.”

The information on embroidery machines would come in handy here.
