I have quilted a lot of things, but I never would have guessed I would quilt my own shoes. I have! S invited me to a class, at The Quilt Crossing, last weekend. I finished those bad girls up today. I used Tulla Pink fabric for the uppers, and more yellow fabric with colorful buttons for the tongues. I put bias binding on, in HOT pink. S had ordered a sweet box of multicolored eyelets, so we did not have to use bronze or silver on our amazingly colorful one-of-a-kind shoes. I used several different colors of eyelets to bling up my shoes.
I topped them off with artful Monet shoestrings, I purchased last Saturday, at an art consortium store in where the A&W Market used to be in the 1960s-70s. I am not dating myself. I thought they may be too long, but they are just right!
