I've been sewing for many, many years, but the thing is, one person can't know it all. There's always new, interesting facets of the hobby to explore and learn. Do you know what a biscornu is? Well, I didn't until today...
Julie, from Sum of their Stories, shows how to sew the embroidery to make a mini biscornu - a small, octagonal pincushion. There's a design sheet to download and follow, as well as a link to Julie's original tutorial on how to make the actual biscornu.

I must admit I did not know what a biscornu was. This is a pretty one.
ReplyDeletevery nice I have made quite a few in hardanger one of which was a project in Stitch magazine
ReplyDeleteI have seen several patterns for Biscornu over the years Pam, but have never yet got around to making one! One of these days :)
ReplyDeleteI do know what it was, but didn't know what it was called!! I have a cute cross stitch pattern for one... but no tutorial to make the pincushion, so thanks to you, I now know how to make it! xx
