I have no idea how nice these are in person, but My Slippers has a lovely selection of needlepoint shoes to browse. Looks like they will make custom slippers from your needlework and also offer pre-made needlepoint shoes.

UPDATE: How about these heels? They are tent stitched and date to the 1730s!
