| Charming pair of Russian folk figures
in wedding garb. The couple was adapted from a piece
of wood inlay folk art, and the border patterning was
inspired by the embroidery on several Ukrainian blouses.
Many interesting composite patterns are used in the
costumes, but the fillings are fully charted and easy
to compensate. Finished Design Size: 10.5 " x 16.5
