In the 20teens these fabric boots/shoes were sold at quilt shows and were very popular.  I could never quite convince myself they were meant for me.  Haven't seen any for years, but then I haven't been to many quilt shows lately.  I'll have to look at the Quilts, Inc. show in Long Beach this summer.   I don't know how these are connected to the original mola design/technique of the native work done on the San Blas Islands in SAmerica.   Can the fabric be hand stitched reverse applique?

My friend who was wearing these fancy shoes said they came from the "Mama Shama" booth at a quilt show.  I can't find a website, but there is a Facebook page:  https://www.facebook.com/molashoes#

If you Google "mola shoes" there are quite a few references. 

 

  




My friend also said the shoes are not very comfortable.  I think they are wonderful, but I can't wear this type of shoe now-a-days.  Too bad!
