Children's shoes are not the smoothest things. and the decorations and buckles can tend to rip up the work so be sure to make it rather "closed" so that it does not catch on things while walking. That can cause trips and falls.
Next time you might want to try multicolor thread, the one with pink yellow green blue , that always was the favorite one my girls wore. Now with grand babies I am back at it again. this last time for the past 4 and 1/2 years.
It looks like with another one due in Feb08, I probably will not be stopping any time soon.
For Aurora, the First grand daughter I used SulkyThread together with my thread to create a twinkle, for "princess" socks.
Then you have to make more for all her friends. Be careful, this produces an addiction, and socks are expensive.
The rule in my family is if your friends want princess socks then they have to buy the socks. For the ones that are truly good friends they/their moms give me packages of the right kind of socks ....or money(then I can get the right kind of socks.
We are now using footies as well. But be careful footies tend to "scrub" in the heel or in tight spots so choose your sock well.
Any questions just ask me and I will do my best to give you what I have for experience in this. Libby
