Default You never know where inspiration comes from!
Last week, I made a lovely little pentangle ball using English piecing... I had decided to make a set of skittles to go with them, but let's be honest that's a bit boring. Then on Sunday morning it came to me, I brushed my hand over my chin and found a little white wirey hair! I grabbed the tweezers and there she was on the end of the tweezers, a little Matryoshka doll and there I had my design. So here they are English piecing meets Russian crafts:
