Description:

This is a private swap for the Matryoshka Lovers group.We haven't done a swap in a while, so lets do one with our Matryoshkas being animals (includes fish, birds, reptiles). There should be at least three, with the largest not being any smaller than 4" tall or bigger than 8". Please make the largest Matryoshka so that it can stand up on it's own, ie. it has a bottom. That should give you a good range for sizes and the number of Matryoshka you would like to include. This is senders choice, so you can start on it right away. You have 3 weeks from the end of sign up to complete your sets. You can use felt or fabric or a combination. They should be lovingly embellished. Please send something that you would like to receive!

Members in good standing only. I will check. No flakers please! If you have any worries about a participant PLEASE contact me. I believe that we have a great group of swappers and this should be a fun swap. You must have a 4.8 rating or above and no no-sends within the last three months.

This is a great pattern that I have used many times and it is easily enlarged and altered. It gives a great dimension for the bottom. If anyone has others they would like to share please feel free to post below!

So, 1 set of no less than 3 Matryoshka for 1 partner. The largest should be no smaller than 4" or bigger than 8". The largest should have a bottom so it can stand on it's own. Senders choice so you can start on it right away! Have fun with this one!
