Matryoshka means “little matron” in Russian, it’s a painted wooden doll. They are quite cute and funny, and these bookmarks imitate them. To make them you’ll need felt pieces, scraps of fabric, sharpie pens, cotton thread and needle, scissors, PVA glue, a small brush, 3mm ribbon, a template. Cut out the printed template. The outside, black border of the template will be the back of the matryoshka, the inside lines in grey will be the front. Place the template on top of the felt and draw the shape on it. Cut out the inside (grey) holes and repeat step 3, this time outlining the inside cut outs for face and belly. Keep reading the tutorial here.
