Well. . . . .
One of the things Alice found as she fell down the rabbit hole was a map on one of the shelves along the sides of the hole. I thought that might be fun to include in the quilt. The only map fabric I had was of the United States in a muted color. I decided to use it anyway and choose fabrics that might accent it.
I used the flowers and leaves from Block #4. I embroidered the narrow vines instead of appliqueing them.
From the get-go this block had a life of it's own.
I'm not sure it really goes with the rest of the Alice Jane Blue/Celebrating Mary Brown blocks but it's done and I'm moving on.
Be sure and check out the others that are participating in this Celebrating Mary Brown SAL. And if you'd like to join along just contact Karen at Log Cabin Quilter.

Oh my goodness! So creative. It will work right in with your other blocks just fine. I look forward to your next block.
I love your fabrics and your creativity. Hugs
I love it! So creative and imaginative. You will bee telling Alice’s story throughout the quilt.
A very clever incorporation of the map. The fabrics look lovely and it is another nice connection to your Alice in Wonderland theme.
Love your imaginative and creative take on Mary!
