For storybook day at preschool. She’s really into matryoshkas. REALLY. INTO. THEM. Santa brought her this book along with this doll for Christmas. It started long before that though when someone brought her a real set from a trip to the ’stans of Central Asia. So here she is, our littlest matryoshka — costume made by Mama in the winging it loosely based on a shirt pattern way. You can’t see the flower on her apron but it’s there, behind the book. All three pieces will end up in the dress-up box. They’re so much better than some of the polyester junk that’s in there.
how adorable!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You’re the best mom ever!
What a cute costume!!
My daughter is REALLY into matryoshkas, too. I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve searched for those little pieces to put them all back together…
Oh. Holy. Cuteness.
This is the cutest thing ever. Seriously.

very cute.
Adorable. Homemade costumes are the best!
O, man such a cute costume!! I’m from Russia and we are Matryoshka Central you know)) Do you mind if I’ll steal your daughters pretty picture and e-mail it back home to my Mom?))
I love this so much. She makes the best little nesting doll.
What a great costume. I’m sure the leaves count as green anyway.
What a cute costume - The leaves do count as green - I’m sure she will get many months of playing dress up with it.
