High Heel Shoe?

Hello I have a high heel shoe made out of thread that my Great Grandmother made before she passed. I also have the shoe forms she used to stiffen the shoe. So, my question is...does anyone know where I can find a pattern for a high heel shoe?

I can scan the shoe tonight, but the only one I have isn't stiffened.

Donna

I believe Annie's Attic has several booklets on Vintage shoe patterns. YEP....they still do Annie's Attic Vintage Shoes There are several on the page so just scroll thru them. Is this what you were looking for?

Donna,

Check this out. This is only one of several shoes that Annie's attic have on sale.

I think this is what you are looking for and you can't beat 99 cents per pattern.

This is what I'm looking for. The first photo shoes the shoe form, and the crocheted shoe flat. The second photo shoes the crocheted shoe on the form..so you can see the detail. It is just a simple dc pattern, I think I am going to give it a whirl..was just hoping to find a pattern, lol. My great grandmother use to have tons of these, all different colors and some with emblishments, but this is the only one that could be found when she passed. So..here they are... Donna

Oh! I don't believe it!
Someone else asking about these shoes!

I looked everywhere for the forms and a pattern.

I finally found it in a Mary Maxim crafts catalogue.

They had a kit of five or six clear plastic molds and instructions to make little fancy shoe Christmas ornaments.

I was so happy!

My Grandma had made them into pin cusions and potpourri holders, but she left no instructions on how she made them and only one mold (which my sister scarfed!!!)

After you make it, you remove them from the mold and spray some ot that light crochet starch on them to stiffen them up.

I could take some picks tomorrow of the ones I made from the molds.
