Little Alice fell down the hole, bumped her head and bruised her soul”
---Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland Alice in Wonderland was written by
Lewis Carroll in 1865. A story does not endure for 155 years without
capturing the imagination of generations. It is the story of a world
turned on its head. It begs us to question everything we know, throw
away our assumptions and succumb to nonsense. The loosest grip on
reality wins! Wonderland captures the most essential nature of what I
want my fabric to be and why I quilt... escapism. When the weight of the
world is too much I turn to needle and thread. This collection focuses
on some of the most memorable themes and characters from the story. Our
two main characters for the collection are Alice, of course, and the Red
Queen. Alice sits in a sweet wreath of daisies with her cat Dinah on
her shoulder. In the background are the white rabbits poised to lead
Alice down the rabbit hole. Both portrait prints are designed to easily
cut down to 8 1/2 inch squares without cutting into the next portrait.
There is a lot to discover in this collection and everything has meaning
from the original story. Alice falls down the rabbit hole surrounded by
curious objects in “Down the Rabbit Hole”. When Alice first gets to the
bottom of the Rabbit Hole she grows so tall that she can’t fit through
the door to Wonderland and she begins to cry. As she shrinks, her tears
flood out the little door taking her and many Wonderland residents with
the current in a print called “Sea of Tears”. The “Cheshire” cat looms
in the night sky watching over Wonderland. Painted, spotted roses still
dripping with wet paint sit on a background of oversize spots just
hoping to blend in and escape the Queen’s notice. A wide stripe of vines
grow out of the selvage scooping up a Mad Hatter’s tea party. There is
so much more to discover.
