Blue Suede Shoes

I had a good laugh when I was taking a picture of these shoes. They are going to an exhibit, but the Felting Forum's monthly Challenge is Felt Us a Tune! At first I was thinking "Blue Suede Shoes", but then the back side said, "Wooly, Wooly".

The Exhibit is "All (W)rapped Up" at Gallery 107, Tri County Arts Council, Cobleskill, NY from March 2nd-March 31st 2007 All the exhibitors are from the The Northeast Feltmakers Guild, with whom I got my start.

The shoes are indigo dyed Merino and Tencel, lasted over leather with leather soles. They have a decorative button and close with Velcro.

My Shoes

These are some of my shoes. Clockwise from upper left:

Blue Clogs uppers made from a Merino wool & Tencel blend custom dyed for me by Chameleon Colorworks. They have an all leather sole that I made by gluing several layers together, they are a lasted shoe. Hand felted flowers

Brown Polka Dots are hand made felt uppers with a hand stitched edge, the shoes are lasted with a custom Vibram sole and tied with ribbon.

Last, but not least, my HGTV That's Clever Shoes! This is my "Hero" pair, which is my totally finished pair made from the same Merino wool & Tencel blend from Chameleon Colorworks. They are also lasted with ribbon ties.
