Oooh they're fab, I'd never be able to walk in them, though! As to the patchwork, you do have to sew but you don't sew all the squares together individually. You basically sew down a whole line of squares, turn it round and do the same the other way, the interfacing is holding them together. It's good for small areas but you wouldn't do a whole quilt that way (well, I suppose you could if you had masses of interfacing!) Have a look at Alicia's blog for the (better) explanation! Hen x
Wow, foxy lady! Love shoes..and boots! No I have not, but I have already spent far too much on me, so will have to make do with my birthday shoes for christmas!
I love them...I'm not great in stilettos - can do high but not spikey!!!! I wear a chunky high heel I feel safer lol!!! I am going to buy gold shoes today (if they have my size) my long evening dress is gold and the sandals I bought last year were the wrong shade of gold :) think I've found a match!!!
Ok, I own up...I do have a little stash! but......it is true I have been bad lately. I do not know how i get away with it sometimes..you know what I mean when Hubs try peeping in our bags as we try to sneak them in from the car. I have used the, Oh this is old, had it years! too many times now. lol....xx
I have quite a few x'mas shoes ;) although the ones i've seen that i would love are actually jimmy choos and are over £300!! it's never gonna happen :(
Wow that is one flashy pair of christmas shoe's. I remember the one and only time I wore stiletto heals on a night out, unfortunatly it involved an open grated drain and two of my mate's trying to free me before one of us wet ourselves laughing lol. Oh those were the days eh lol
Wonderful shoes!!! I'd trip. LOL. You are so norty. Fancy sending BM to a lavender farm. I can't imagine how she'd hate it. Tee hee. Thanks for making me smile. Have a lovely day. xxx
Very nice Mary. Being a size 3 though, I would fall straight over in them. I notice your feet are slightly bigger. Bet you'll look great at the Christmas parties. Any planned?? Rachael xx
Hello Mary Couldn't find an email address for you. You asked me about the CK sample book.. Well, I got it from the Baer & Ingram open day (not something that they openly publicise) which they had about 3 weeks ago. It is held at Kevin McClouds house which is about 10/15 mins away from where I live. His wife ran the business and a couple of years ago they stopped the Baer & Ingram business so occasionally they hold an open day to get rid of old warehouse stocks.. Not sure if they have much more left now or if there will do another one. I am on their mailing list so if I hear anything I'll let you know. The CK pattern you have mentioned, I promise to look out for when I am out and about looking for textiles etc.. Fab shoes! We'll be away for Christmas, I haven't bought anything yet! Take care Isabelle x
I've had to come back for another look at their purpley, sparkly wonderfulness!!!! M&S are doing some fab shoes at the moment ... I got a lovely pair of black patent heels (not quite as high as yours!) a couple of weeks ago! I love shoes! xxx
