Welcome to the newbies. Please don't feel intimidated. No matter how
much those of us who've been making lace for years know, there's always
another type of lace which we know nothing about. In other words, we
may not be newbies to the list, but we're always newbies for one type of

Dear List,
This thread of red shoes reminds me of a shoe poem my husband learnt as
a child. All I can remember is:
Black shoes, flat shoes, stamp them on the mat shoes.
That's the sort of shoes they'd buy!
The young person in the poem wanted some strappy pointed toe shoes etc.
Barbara, Parkes,
I have never had a pair of red shoes but I did once as a young teen have a
pair of green sandals with wedge heels.
Can't imagine wearing anything like that today.

I've never bought red shoes, but my first pair of ballet shoes were red

When I was a teenager, I bought a pair of yellow plastic platform clogs,

Hi All, I'm another member of the red shoes club. I have a pair of red
flats that I love to wear. For some reason I feel having shoes to match the
color of an outfit (or accessory) is the height of fashion! I also have a

I have to admit that I have a weakness for red shoes! I
have a pair of impossible stilettos in red suede with a

now, but I had to have them, and bought them on summer day
(on sale) and thought that my feet would be smaller in the
winter.
