Not original, but.....

Post by p.penn »

I know this has been on the forum before, but I just had to show you my russian dolls! I just have to embroider a few flowers on now ( yike* ) then they are finished. My least fave is the green and blue one - I did think about re-doing her before I decorated her, but...to be honest, this has taken me a while as I needed to do the faces, hair and flowers and kept avoiding it! So just pleased to have got this far!

I am going to have to hide them when my grandchildren come round as they always say 'will you make us one' which means one each .......and there is absolutely no chance I will EVER make another of these {rofwl}

Do you remember that happened with the *&%£*" knitted Xmas decs? {rofwl}

Great little characters Helen. I love the face on the big one, although all are cute. I must say that you putting the rest of us to shame as you are being so industrious with your crochet work and putting up some great pics. You must be feeling a great sense of satisfaction {hug}
