The theme for the April Blythe Runway Challenge was “Alice in Wonderland”.
We were extremely busy all through April, mostly due to the preparations for the Bambole a Roma doll show (more about that in later posts!)  and to my trip to Rome to attend the event.
However, team Wererabbit made it to the deadline – in a mad rush!

I chose Tweedledee & Tweedledum as my design inspiration and this is what we came up with:

I think we didn’t do too bad there. :)
I really must thank my mother for doing most of the work in just about three days. 

But on to the relevant stuff!
All the entries to the April challenge, including ours, are currently being auctioned on eBay, to benefit AIDS Foundation Houston.

Tweedledum and Tweedledee
Agreed to have a battle;
For Tweedledum said Tweedledee
Had spoiled his nice new rattle.
Just then flew down a monstrous crow,
As black as a tar-barrel;
Which frightened both the heroes so,
They quite forgot their quarrel.
