Have actually managed to get somewhere with my CS...I now have nearly a dog (just missing a few embellishments on the chest and one paw) and now I'm working through a TON of background. I've done just over a quarter (the pattern goes into quarters) and I'm quite impressed as it's my first major project

thank you nmm

the first site i cant get onto for some reason

but the second is just the style im after but (should have said in last post) i wanted them on different aidas so they can be framed individually for dd's bedroom. i could cut that one if i cant find them seperate but i dont want to butcher the aida (scissors arent my strong point) plus it may be hard to find frames

thanks for helping me x

are they called babuskas in russia? (i sound so thick lol) maybe thats why i couldnt find any!

Hi there

Yep-I put Babushka dolls into the search engine.....
Hopefully you can get them at a good price
If you wan't to do them as seperate dolls, you will be best off buying extra fabric as you will need to allow for a border around each one -would hate for you to do them and run out of room :eek:

Im still searching because I remember seeing some not so long ago...just have to remember where :rotfl:

yippee_kye_yay

good idea about the extra fabric! i didnt even think! im not having a good day! lol

thanks for all your help
