slip-ons as gift



I've been having really great dreams this week. In Wednesday nights dream I had decorated a pair of white canvas shoes and gave them to a friend. He adored them. I remember explaining them to other people in my dream, so when I woke up there was no way I was going to forget.
After creating them in photoshop, I realized that they look so similar to my friend Annie's knit patterns. They didn't at all in my dream, but one I started with the paint tool, they transformed into something else. The orange circles were big metallic copper beads and the black was all embroidered. I'm thinking the next step will have to be three-dimensional. I'll get right on that in October..
