Alice had arrived in Wonderland, with her cat.... ...where she met the Mad Hatter.... ....who invited her to his tea party.... Alice sat down beside a green toad. He wasn't one of the usual guests one would expect, but this wasn't your usual tea party, and I had to make some replacement decisions.... ....like the two little Victorian boys, who could stand in for Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum.... ....and Winston instead of the Jaberwocky..... I did have a dormouse, and he needed some help to sit high enough at the table.... The dormouse brought a friend, and because there were no rabbits, a Raccoon was invited instead.. It was a lovely afternoon, perfect for a tea party.... They all had such a fun time, that I need to see about gathering some more friends for more adventures in Wonderland next year....

Thanks. I figured it was my 'Wonderland' so I could invite who I wanted to.

Absolutely love these! I've had an Alice obsession for a very long time so I really enjoyed these. Wonderful everything and I totally agree it's your Alice fantasy, so invite whoever you want!

Thanks. I also don't mind mixing styles - like the traditional Alice, with the movie Hatter. One of these days I hope to have more characters and do some more scenes. I'd like a rabbit, and a jointed caterpillar, but would have to make both.

Martha, I love to visit this blog so much. You are so inventive and so incredibly skilled. I've been inspired to work on my own sewing, photography andstory-telling with my dolls. Your Alice is so precious, as are all of the children and characters! Did you make some of the lovely food as well?
