I was given some lovely yarn, very fine alpaca and silk blend, beautiful to handle it is so very soft. Tried it out as a wig on a peg doll and was pleased with the result, and that led to my completing the doll, decided to make the Duchess to add to the Alice in Wonderland collection. I wanted her to be a little matronly to be different from the Queen of Hearts. And for a while there was a problem of her baby who turned into a pig until I found a pig button in my button tin and it worked perfectly.
I have been asked how big are these decorations, so to give you some idea I dook this photo with a marker pen, the pen is 5 1/2 inches or 14cm
I must leave Alice in Wonderland for a while, yes there are more characters I want to add but need to wait till after my next felt order. For this month February I have quite a different book in mind,
My daughter Jan has quite a big collection of children's books, including those from my childhood her fathers and then her own and I noticed a few of her brothers there too along with what she has added for her daughters when they were younger. I am enjoying re reading children's books again as I research details for my decorations.
What did you enjoy reading when you were a child?
Keep safe and have a good month

The Duchess has a lovely Matriarchal air to her which must fit into the story line.
It is not a book that I've read although characters are known of course.
Have fun developing the other characters for the story tree.
The Duchess is wonderful! I read a short story recently about what happened to the pig when it grew up. It turned back into a boy and met up with the three girls who live in the treacle well.
Alice was one of my favourite books. I also loved the Enid Blyton school stories and anything with beautiful illustrations. Arthurian legends and Greek myths and legends were also on my reading list. The Narnia books and anything by E. Nesbit!
For modern authors I adore Chris Riddell and his illustrations too.
