Fancy Shoes





You probably don't know this, but I am one of the leaders of our weekly children's minstry on a Wednesday night at church. I have the pleasure (mostly) of working with our Grade 2 & 3 kids. At the start of this year we had a "launch" for the year's theme of 'Walking Like Jesus' and introducing our main Bible verse - "Whoever claims to live in Him must walk as Jesus did." 1 John 2:6 (NIV).
Each of the leaders wore their favorite 'shoes' - some wore slippers, others wore flippers, each was different.
The photos above are the shoes I wore. No, they aren't my favorites, but they are a lot of fun.
I bought a pair of plain white shoes and decorated them with fabric paint, flowers and beads. Each thing on them represents something I love. The flowers, butterflies, and the hearts on the back because I love the kids. (Ok, so there were some squiggles and spirals and things too, but that was for colour and fun.)
So there you have it. Another non-cross sitch project.

Beth,

Stumbled upon your blog. As a Christian stitcher, you may appreciate my cross stitch designs featuring Bible verses at http://www.joyfulexpressions.us

There are many free designs, but I would be glad to give you an additional chart of your choice to download.
