What do you think of these? "Alice" is a yet-to-be-released group from Quilting Treasures. They're very interesting but I'd need ideas on how to use them. (There are other coordinates in the group, too, but I've just posted four pictures to share.)

I think it's cute.
I'd take the 2 first ones and make pillow cases

I positively love the visuals and story of Alice in Wonderland, but, these are a bit, muted for my taste. Maybe they'll have some nice brights, for me! :D
Don't mean to squash your fabs, there, NY Nancy, I'm sure you can come up with something to show them off.
They just need a little tweaking.
I don't get the 'vibe', from them, so my motivational board ain't lightin up, that's all.
Would love a look-see, when you do something with them. I learn to like new things on here, all the time. thanks for sharing! :D

sadly this design has fallen short for me. i was excited when i heard it would be made into fabric but having seen the final results the designs are less than stellar for me.

Alice has always been a favorite of mine!!! I would definately use the first one for a border....maybe the second one too....not sure about the other two, maybe have a look at some of the other coordinates to put with them :wink: :wink:

Hi
new to the group but following the Alice in Wonderland theme. I've just bought 1m of the "vignettes" to see what it is like. It arrived today - I love it - My daughter will adore it. The pictures are the classic Alice and she loves traditional items. I think that I can identify the actual book that these came from - I'll create a quilt using maybe snowballs for the pictures and use the strips for a number of borders. that means - I have to order some of the strips - blue and brown pinwheels in between and that's done! Yeh!

7 year old grand daughter will be delighted. I have managed to source an original Alice book so this looks like good Xmas pressies. - Time to order the extra fabric and get sewing- Hmm - two pillows will be good also - she'd like that.

Must now look for Classic Pooh for the grandson

Cheers
Pam
