https://images.search.yahoo.com/sear...g&action=click Here's one site - there was another with even more. Google 'Outline of an athletic shoe'.

I haven't a clue how to make an outline into a paper pieced item.

If there's a tutorial some place please post it.

Thanks for the link Irishrose2!

i go to kids coloring pages for 99% of my applique, try simple, or basic or kindergarden, they lines are clearer and the design simpler.

Try Disorderly Threads. It is an etsy shop and she has the cutest in the hoop zippered bag using an appliqued high top tennis shoe AND she also sells just the design but it is appliqued and a machine embroidery design. So you have to have an embroidery machine to use it. Hope this helps.
Here is a link to her shop......https://www.etsy.com/shop/DisorderlyThreads

Thanks much!!

I have a copy of high top sneakers that is on my someday list of to do projects. I'll look for that pattern later and post which magazine it's in.

Ginger, you have to purchase the pattern and then Craftsy will allow access.

For a quilt for my DGD, I took a photograph of her dance shoes, with her feet in them, blew them up and then cropped her feet out. I used the resulting shoe as the pattern for the quilt. I'm sure you could do the same for sneakers. In fact, her HipHop dance shoes were sneakers! Here is a photo of how they came out.

Ok, I found the pattern I was looking for, it is called "I Love My All Stars" by Sonja Callaghan. It is in Quiltmaker #145 - May/June'12 issue. This is the link: http://www.quiltmaker.com/patterns/d...html?idx=14029

Kath12 thank you so much!! That quilt is cute.

Now to get the pattern!!
