Alice in Wonderland by Amanda Butler

13 part SAL in Cross Stitcher magazine

Stitched on 32 count Yellow Belfast

Things I love about this design:

It's Alice in Wonderland

It is based on the original Tenniel drawings

The charting is very good

The fun details in the border

Her use of colour

Things I don't like:

She uses one random Tim Burton design instead of all Tenniel

She used one block from Through The Looking Glass but no others

She didn't use The Caterpiller but did include the minor characters of the two footmen.

I also didn't like the final block of the King and Queen of Hearts.

I charted my own version of The Queen of Hearts to replace the Footmen.  

Then I charted the final scene of Alice in the Courtroom.

Beaded details in the crowns and clothing
