-- is Michele Pacey. I had two people enter and so I had C designate which person was heads, she designated Michele from Michele Made Me and Michele won the coin toss. Michelle - please email me your address and I will try to get the prize in the mail next week. I am afraid this week is out of the question as my husband and I are going on a little trip (just the two of us) to Mexico on Thursday.
Because of my mini-vacation, I will probably only post today. So before I leave, I share with you my babushkas.
These dolls are made from scraps of wool skirts, sweaters, fake fur, and flannel. I couldn't decide, if I liked them better with eyes or without. Unfortunately, I still can't decide. (I also sometimes swear they look more like Eskimos than babushkas).
I used the template for these darling embroidered and sewn babushkas from Wee Folk Art...I would like to follow her instructions sometime and include some embroidery but these were for the quick and easy thrill of saying: DONE!! I used a glue gun instead! :)
They hang above the sink in my kitchen. They look ready to help me out, don't you think?

Yay me! I'll email you my address right away! Those babushkas are awesome and darn it, why not use a glue gun I say. I love calling things DONE.
ReplyDeleteThese are clearly little babushkas and I love them with eyes! They would be such cute little Christmas ornaments.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to Michelle and to you! Going on a romantic holiday! How fun!

They are so sweet, Melissa! I love babushkas. What a great way to bring them into your home. Thanks for the link!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to the winners! I only wish my fingers were adept enough to embroider. My fine-motor skills are seriously lacking. ☺
Have fun on your trip! Lucky girl! ☺
Super cute! Have a good trip! :)
ReplyDeleteLove babouska dolls, my little notepad that I take to church is an applique babouska doll.
ReplyDeleteI quite like them without eyes, but they are great with eyes.
