Wonderland charms

Amber Dawn is truly the swap hostess extraordinaire. Not only is she always hosting private swaps, but she also hosts the International Artistic Charms Exchange that has over a dozen charm swap themes going on every year. I don't know how she does it! This year I signed up for two IACE swaps. The themes are: Alice in Wonderland; and Fabric and Fiber Free-for-All. Earlier this summer, I finished the 10 charms for the Alice in Wonderland swap. My charms are 100% hand-sewn. No glue was used. Each one is a little over an inch square, so you're viewing them as "larger than life."

Queen of Hearts:



The White Queen:
The White Rabbit:

The White Rabbit (he looks a little psychotic here):

The White Rabbit:



Alice and The Cheshire Cat:


Alice and The Golden Key:

The last three are all Queen of Hearts:

I love, love, loved all the charms! I looked at the first two and was enchanted, then the next two were exquisite, after that I was overwhelmed with all the incredible choices. Then I realized they were already promised to a swap and my balloon of happiness deflated...Whoosh! Create some more enchantment which you are so good at, and make them available to your public, please.

Brenda - We were both in Amber's B/W charm swap and I love the beautiful charm that you made of the little fairy girl! :)

Necia - I plan on eventually having a few extra that I can add to my Etsy shop. As soon as I do, I'll mention it here! :)
