As a girl,
one of my favorite Disney animations was Alice in Wonderland. One summer in elementary school I even checked out Lewis Carroll's classic Alice Through the Looking Glass. I read it cover to cover. I loved it. My new favorite is the recent film version with Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter.
(He is just the best actor.)
I love the idea of looking at things in a different perspective.

A couple of years a go I sewed up this little Alice costume for my daughter. I used a pattern for the body of the dress using costume blue satin.
I added a rounded collar made out of white cotton.
I then designed the apron by measuring and piecing together the parts. I added ruffles of lace and a blue satin sash that ties in a bow in the back. She wore white tights and black Mary Janes. I made a black headband with a felt black bow and a
rhinestone square gem middle.

It was darling.
