Week 48 is a quilt about shoes. We are back on track and going to finish the year in order, sort of! I love vintage advertising and vintage images. I was tickled when I found a copy right free book of shoe images. It is called
Memories for a lifetime: Shoes and is by Karey Judd. I used one page of images to print onto fabric. I added some ribbon to divide the quilt square. I then took some additional images from the shoe book and copied them onto transparencies. This was done earlier in the year and is a technique by Ruth Rae. I sewed the transparencies on three sides. I filled them with glitter, beads, and
stampendous fragments (bronze). I then closed them by stitching them along the top. I added a dictionary page, an old shoe earring, three scrapbooking flowers, and two buttons. Voila, a vintage shoe quilt. For those of you shopping today, may you have very comfortable shoes!
