"He may be neckless and limbless, but he's wearing the finest silk suit available,
and carries his prized pocket watch in his waistcoat."

"'d planned on making a whole bunch of characters, but i unfortunately only had time to make these two. i'm still quite pleased with how they came out. they're both hand sewn and are made out of fleece with felt and embroidery thread for detailing."

"I made this pillow out of denim with designs painted on in fabric paint. The bunny is made of berber fleece with a sequin and bead eye."

"Clad in calico pajamas, this sleepy dormouse is made out of wool felt, has button eyes. 8 in. tall."

"I made her entirely from felt, and she's stuffed with toy stuffing.
She's a very tiny 4.2inches tall!"

"He's late, he's late... acrylic felt, and handsewn. My White Rabbit wears a blue ascot, an orange vest, and carries an oversized (and totally inaccurate!) pocketwatch."

A Girl Who Creates
"I combined 2 characters and did a cheshire rabbit. I'm happy with the way it came out. It may end up in someone's first Easter basket this year, although there will be no playing with it. I'm afriad it would fall apart with various tugging and chewing. So it will probably go up on her shelf."

"A handmade papermache teacup is decoupaged with pictures and text from the original version of the book by Lewis Carroll and John Tenniel. Add to that some moss...."

Karen Tucker
Kraf-o-la
"One of these days, I'd like to try to make one sitting on a pin cushion ala Jennifer Murphy. The caterpillar on a mushroom would be perfect for this."
Link

Laura E. Butler
Smitten Graphics
" I created this grown-up Alice illustration on the computer and made her into a paper doll. Her little cakes are made of felt with sequins."
Link

Amanda Lee
Stuffed
"My poor Mock Turtle. He looks like a frog in a mule suit. What a sad case indeed. The pattern is from one of those mass produced 1970's cloth doll books. The head is supposed to be made of clay so, of course, it is not."
Link

Two Rabbits
"The little two-legged do-dads in the forest who form the big arrow to show Alice which way to go (my favorite!)"

Jessica Poundstone
Utopia Parkway
"Once again, the non-sewer participates! Here are a gaggle of Alice In Wonderland characters - The Queen, Alice, the White Rabbit and the Mad Hatter - made from paper, stuffed with paper-shreds and "sewn" shut with
staples. Frankly, this doesn't seem like a terribly mature way to be spending my time. Perhaps that's why
it's so much fun!"

Fishberry Jam
"It’s called ‘Drink Me’ ~ It measures 18 1/2"h x 10 1/2"w. Mixed Media ~ vintage collage, acrylic paint, oil paint, glitter "
Link

Wendy
"This is my first attempt at making a doll. I have to say that really enjoyed the process. It was harder than I thought it would be, but also way more fun than I had anticipated. The result is my version of Alice. She turned out to be some sort of free spirited ballerina. I wish I could make her clothes for me. "
Link

Louise Driscoll
Mrs D
"Yay! Have finished Alice. Made her head, and then attached it to her body. The neck looked a bit insecure so I added a collar to shore the whole thing up. Well pleased with it. Makes her look a bit smarter. "
Link

"I kind of ran out of time - being that this is a short month and all - yes that is my excuse and I'm sticking to it. They are iron-on patches!!! "
Link

Christine
"I made a mushroom, since I thought it would be the most simple character in keeping with the Alice theme. I've made knit stuffed animals, but I've never sewed one. I cut up an old fleece shirt and used embroidery floss to make this pensive mushroom."
Link

Alysha Jane
"I had planned on knitting an Alice doll but ran out of time. So I had to think of something much smaller. I thought of the little cake that was labelled 'eat me' spelled out in currants on its top."
Link

Cathy Cullis
Twisted Simple
"She is a 'mixed media' doll - her body is applique fabrics and stitch. Her head/face is a computer print, altered with a paint glaze, backed with fabric and stitched."
Link

Hilary Talbot
Spirits Dancing
"The rabbit is actually a very simple glove puppet, as he fits on your hand and you can turn his head with a rod inside his body. He is very cuddly, and its fun to cradle him your arms (without it being obvious that one arm is inside) and make him come alive."
Link

Rachel Holkner
Nothing Rhymes with Rachel
"I had grand plans, but, you know, February is the shortest month. I would show you Alice, but the sight of her dismembered, unclothed body would bring the site from PG to M rating. Hopefully I'll finish her soon."
Link

Helen Stewart

"My slightly wonky White Rabbit is looking very rushed and and a bit stressed. I think it is because he seems to have lost his pocket watch!"
Link

Smithy
"I had some company creating Softies this month. Smithy decided to join in and created this fabulous caterpiller. He wanted me to add for the record that we made these while watching several games of rugby."

"Here is my little red mushroom for Alice in Wonderland Month of Softies...it was felted from natural dyed plant batting and wool batting. Vintage buttons were sewn on for the spots. The catapillar that should sit on the mushroom crawled away! "
Link

"For this month's Month of Softies, I made a mouse. This is supposed
to roughly correlate with the dormouse in Alice of Wonderland. It's also relevant for the book Max and I are reading now, Kate DiCamillo's "Tale of Despereaux". Despereaux is a small mouse with big ears, and a spool of red thread plays a significant role in the
story. "

"He is quite serious because of the courtroom setting, but is very much looking forward to getting to his next scheduled appointment. I hope you enjoy him!"

"...and round the neck of the bottle was a paper label, with the words `DRINK ME' beautifully printed on it in large letters."

"A friend sent me a link to A Month of Softies a week ago with the further challenge that we'd create items made only with materials we had on hand. I learned to knit three months ago and I had yarn in the right color, so I made this bunny, my first free-form item, knit without a pattern."

Sara Lucas

"Hello, I Alice in Wonderland's White Rabbit and i come
from Portugal. I can tell the time and i was made from left over white felt!"

Tashina
The Colorist
"You might wonder what this creature is....he's the dancing Gryphon as
drawn by Lewis Carroll!
I decided since he was a black and white illustration, I could interpret his colors anyway I liked."

" "Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun

Jek Wilson
I Like Lobsters
"I was recently watching Disney's Alice in Wonderland and thought the cakes too cute to pass up. So, to
complete the whole shabang, I crafted the "drink me"
bottle along with the cakes and a miniature Alice taken from some vintage fabric I have. Viola!"
Link

"The rabbit pattern came from eBay, it's a copy of a vintage Uncle Wiggly pattern. Clothing patterns were included with Uncle Wiggly, and I changed them some for the White Rabbit."
Link

AuntB
"This serious-looking Queen of Hearts is 10 inches tall. Her face is hand painted in acrylic on wool felt. She's accessorized with silver-lined seed and bugle beads. All hand sewn."

"Finally finished my Pig-Baby tonight...nothing like the last minute. I had a bit of help from my littles again. This little piggy had a nice coat of green paint to begin with, thank you very much dear Logan."
Link

Ariana Marinelli
"Technically my doll is not from Alice in Wonderland but Through the Looking Glass (I hope that it still
counts!). She is the talking lily from the flower garden. The lily is quite cheeky but somehow mine came
out looking sweet and pensive, oh well! She is made out of wool felt and a painted muslin head. I had fun
making her."

" If Alice in Wonderland is a beloved book. Good. Enjoy. It just didn't ruffle my flamingo feathers."

"I simply HAD to make my Alice into a little cowgirl! So Alice in Wonderland is now Alice in Westernland! Aka Calamity Alice, for all the mishaps she encounters along the way, from chasing the White Jackrabbit, to meeting the mysterious Cat Bob with the mischievous grin"

"I read the book just to participate and really enjoyed the dreamy confusion. This hanging is a mixture of some of my favorite vintage fabrics in bright garden-y colors."

"ere is a Baby Oyster, in the story the baby oysters get eaten by a walrus, it's sad cause they are all soooo cute!"
