In between sewing rainbow lolly bags in preparation for the party next weekend, Zoe and I sewed up a Matryoshka doll we had cut from a Kristen Doran panel a couple of weeks ago.

 

While we were sewing (Zoe was on my lap), there was a loud noise, and we looked over to see this sorry sight: 

 

Now what on earth do you think could have caused that shelf to collapse??  And where on earth I am I going to put this fabric (considering every other surface in my teeny tiny sewing room is already well covered)?  Ah well - lucky for me the sewing room is upstairs and I don't need to deal with the fabric issue until after the birthday party.

 

Here is the finished Matryoshka doll - isn't she cute?
