New year, new project!

2011 is off to a bit of a slow start, because I've been busy with cooking and jewelry making. But I've started a cute tote bag- a Matryoshka doll chart from Cross Stitcher (UK):



That's five hours of work. It will look like this, but not red:



I'm not making my own tote- I'm using a stitchable tote from Charles Craft.

There are smaller doll charts in the same issue- I may use some of them for a border, because there will be a lot of space around the big doll.
