I don't get to sew ribbons and elastic on new ballet/pointe shoes very often as Bea's feet haven't grown for a while, so this was a treat. Pointe shoe elastic and ribbons help to support the foot and keep the heel of the shoe in place, so placement is important. The photo shows the ribbons pinned ready for sewing, and Bloch covert elastic was added to the back of each shoe to fit securely and comfortably around the ankles (not shown). Loved doing these, thanks Abs! π©·π©°π©·
