Beach Ball Shoe

Making shoes began as something fun to do in the studio while my friend, Alicia, was here in Tennessee for a visit. We had decided to make small quilts as Christmas presents for our mutual friends. Both of us made contributions to each of those six quilts. They were much like the boot one that I had made for my sister.

They were such fun that I continued making a bunch more. All were based on the silouette of a shoe designed by Christian Louboutin, a Parisian shoe designer. He paints all the soles of his shoes red.. The first shoe I made that ended up in the large quilt, "Imelda's Dream" was this one.
