More About The Matryoshka and Gnomes Book + A GIVEAWAY!!

You probably know already that I am terribly terribly excited to have been included in these Folklore Crafts Books by Fabulous Publishing. Today’s my day on the blog tour (also my first blog tour, which is pretty exciting in itself) and I’m really stoked to show you a little sneak peek of what’s inside these awesome books!

I’m a published crafter! It’s pretty awesome if you ask me! Anyway, what’s cool about these books is that you can buy them in ebook format or in print! So you can have a copy stored on your hard drive to print out the pattern pages as you wish, or you can have the physical copy to flip through… pretty cool, huh?

If you’ve been following along with my enthusiastic ramblings on this book journey, you already know that these are my projects in each respective book:

If you didn’t know, then please meet my Lovely Ladies ornament pattern and my Friendly Garden Gnomes toy!! Yep the Garden Gnomes made the cover!

Here are some of my favorite projects from the books:

Clockwise from Top Left: The Gnomie Cozy by Tara Kolesnikowicz, Needle Felted Russian Dolls by Valerie Hebert, Matryoshka Cupcake Toppers by Redd Hynes and Shayne Rioux, Gnome Chomsky by Redd Hynes, Bigger on the Inside by Paul Hynes, Gnome Cupcake Toppers by Redd Hynes and Shayne Rioux and Hand-printed hankies by Jennifer Thomas.

I hope that you will head over and take a look at the books. They really are a lot of fun!
