A MODERN TAKE ON
RUSSIAN FOLK ART
Visit the hills of rural Russia from the comfort of your sewing
room as you create these adorable nesting dolls! The
intricate designs of each of these Matryoshka dolls are
based off of Khokhloma paintings and other folk art motifs
from Russia and Eastern Europe. With swirling vines and
leaves, the floral patterns on each doll will surely catch and
entice anybody that sneaks a peak at them. Stumped on
what colors to pick? Look at the folk art of Eastern Europe
as inspiration. Khokhloma paintings traditionally have
bright reds, warm yellows, and green accents on a black
background. Other examples of folk art include bright blues,
pinks, violets, and emeralds on black or white background
that decorate traditional crafts. Search for colors that speak
to you and stitch away!
