Hard-soled shoes - PEP BB textile.iron.shoes

This badge bit (BB) is part of the PEP curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the iron badge in textiles.

This project starts with planting the seed and includes processing the fiber/leather, making the fabric, and creating a pair of hard-soled shoes.

Minimum requirements:

 - Harvest the plant or animal material that came from those seeds
 - Process that material into yarn and fabric or leather
 - Shoes must have a hard sole
 - Must not use petroleum-based materials
 - Shoes must be sewn, no commercial adhesives
