Quiltapalooza Shoes

Thursday evening in Houston - Optional "fashion starts below the knees" contest.  Design/decorate and model a pair of shoes.   I grabbed these shoes that were headed for the garage sale pile:
 First painted them with gesso:
 Painted with acrylic paint - bluish green:
 Strips of blue/green fabric:
 Tied them into the weaving of the shoe:
 Added fish and seashells to make "The sea at her feet" shoes!   They didn't win any prizes but had a lot of fun wearing them.  Instead of the garage sale, I think I'll keep them for awhile!
 My sister and I before we left our hotel room:
Happy Day After Thanksgiving!   Be Creative Today!
