All About Alice

Am busy preparing my contribution to the Challenge "All about Alice" at the upcoming exhibition of the Embroiderers Guild Victoria (Geelong Branch). The exhibition titled Alice in Threadland is sure to be inspiring and beautiful. It's on 25-27 October at Vines Road Community Centre, Hamlyn Heights. 

But for now, I need to get this little project finished. I've sought inspiration from a Little Golden Book. Sketched, used my waterproof marker to outline, then used watercolour pencils, Pan Pastels and even chalks to colour Alice in her garden. The next step is to stitch some plants, flowers into the scene.

More pics soon...
