Carolyn’s Sally King Shoe Quilt

Attached is my version of the Sally King’s Calendar Shoes 2013. Quilt is for daughter-in-law who chose the golds and teal colors for their wedding.  Ironically, the most difficult part was the corner blocks.   The finishing touch was the metallic gold clasp stitch on the design fabric which also matches the gold flecked backing and block pieces .

Great design Carolyn – I love all the piecing!  Suz

Betty’s Quilt with Sally’s Shoes

This is the first time I have entered any of your contests.  This is also the first time I have done a large quilt.  This is a twin size quilt for one of my grandchildren.  I have 6 of them and 5 of them are girls.
I have bought several designs from your site but when I first saw the Sally King shoes I fell in love with them.  I used the Sally King Calendar Shoes 2014 part 1 & 2 to do this quilt.  I have since bought the other sets and will be making another quilt since my little girls love shoes.  The ice cream shoe has been tweaked a little since I took off the milk shake portion of it in my software.  It was just a little much and I liked it better without the shake on the end of the shoe.
When I started sewing out the designs I put them on different colors of fabric looking at the thread  colors I was going to use in the shoes.  Some of the shoes are done in different colors then were selected by the designer and to me that is the creative part of sewing.  When I was all done I had all these different colored blocks to try and put in one quilt.  I then had to find a color for my sashings  and border that went with all the designs.  I will do the next quilt different since I learned what not to do with this one.  But it was so much fun stitching them out I kind of got carried away.
They are all stitched on a good quality cotton fabric.  The gal that quilted the quilt (Cheryl Ferris) looked at each design and quilted around each design pulling in the theme of each shoe.  She did a fantastic job on it I thought.
So now for the pictures.  Hope you enjoy this quilt.   Betty

Theresa’s Sally King Spring Hare

Hi Susan,

I just thought you might like to see the “Spring Hare” stitched out on a table runner I made for Easter/Spring.   At first I thought it was very strange as the colors I used were darker than I wanted, but he’s cute either way.   Thanks for having such nice designs.

Stefani’s Cupcake

Hi Suz,

I don’t know if you remember, but when you first released the Sally King cupcake set, I had sent you an email about the promotion you had going on at the time. Well, I did get the apron made for the lady who made the top tiers of my daughter’s wedding cake and the wedding was today. The top tiers of the cake were traditional cake but we made cupcakes for the rest of the cake… so your design set was perfect. The lady who made the top part of the cake is trying to open her own cake decorating business and she did a beautiful job (and didn’t charge hardly anything! She’s a friend of a friend, but still…). Obviously I added the text, Cake Dreams is the name of the business she’s opening. Anyhow, she loved the apron and the design was absolutely perfect. I’ve attached the picture of the apron onto here for you, in case you want to use it for advertising purposes or as a project picture.

Great Story Stefani! Suz

Cheryl and Sally King’s Shoes!

From Cheryl:

Here is my photo of your Sally King shoe. There were 12 of us at the retreat and I stitched a different shoe for each one, matching the shoe to the participant’s likes. It was fun. I also stitched the label for the back.

This is a great idea – made to hang over a doorknob.  I bet the people at the retreat loved them!  Suz

Jan’s Sally King Shoes

Jan makes shoe bags and puts one of Sally shoes on them!  What a great idea.  Suz

Attaching some pics of shoe bags.  They are fully lined with a dividing panel in the middle so that the 2 shoes don’t scratch each other.  Have given away at least a dozen (each one is different).  Will have to make some new friends as I still enjoy making them.    Jan
