Sistah quilter, multi-talented artist, and political activist Kweli Kitwana has taken her love of color and designed a number of canvas shoes on Zazzle.com, the website that allows you to personalized products and make them available for sale. Pictured here is her Underground Railroad Quilt Custom Shoes, available for $63.55. Kweli has also designed a toile-like Harriet Tubman themed fabric on Spoonflower.com - click here to see. I love seeing how Sistah quilters are using technology to push creative boundaries. Can you imagine - a local quilting guild could design their own themed-shoes or commemorative fabrics?! Enjoy!

What fun! To be able to design your own fabric and other items utilzing your designs...and then offering them for sale. Yes, quilters and fabric artists now definitely have the ability to push the boundaries. I must refer to this post on my Home Biz Notes blog. Thanks for sharing.
Mary Emma, Thanks for visiting! Yes, the shoes are fun.... and comfortable looking. Best, Kyra
As my mama used to say.... Chile, this beats all I've ever seen!
Thanks Mary, Kyra and Bev--for your comments on my Underground Railroad Shoes--I am certainly inspired!! -Kweli
