Betty Jo Babushka Clock, above.
A very delicious hand made bag by Kara Smith called "Folk Francis" .

And some adorable hand painted babushkas by Jules Knoblock.

    I too just came across your site via ric-rac via ruthspoon. But seeing your work I now know I've seen your work before, my brother sent me a postcard early last year with your owl on it. It' pinned to my notice board!
    Now your sweet Bubushkus no way resembled my Russian Grandmother..married 7 times smelt of Borsch!
    Love your work..I too could give away some of my stuff, hmmm gives me an idea
    cheers

    Your babushka doll is lovely! I have seen some of your brooches in Cherry Blossom in Paddington (Brisbane) and your work is even more gorgeous in real life. You are obviously also very generous - thank-you for opening up the competition to Aussies!

    Yours is the first Blog I've seen with Babushkas, other than mine of course LOL! I bought my first Babushka in the G.U.M. Store in Moscow in June 1969 I was then hooked! They now number 219 sets with 973 dolls... that's an awful lot of Babushkas isn't it and that's not counting the fabric ones or the quilts with them on so it looks like I'm being rather greedy joining in your giveaway but you see... I just don't have one made of Lino!!

    *sigh* I love Babushka dolls. Especially the brushwork on the 'real' Russian/E. European ones.

    *sigh*
