Everytime I see this pattern I get flooded with fond memories. I once danced in pointe shoes. I still have them too, although they are quite the worse for wear. I didn't have the dedication to stick with it, I prefered going out with my friends and having fun instead of practicing all the time. I'm going to love watching you work on this project.

Great progress! :D

When I moved into my unit I threw out a bag of old pointe shoes and I just threw out another 6 pairs of old pointe shoes on the weekend, but I do still have my very first pair packed away in a box with all my other momentos.

Pretty design :wub: and you've done quite a bit :D Keep up the good work!

I really cannot see how anyone can wear pointe shoes and balance on the very tip. It seems impossible to me! :shock: :lol:
