And I haven't started mine. :oops:
So, is the list in the order that we'll be sending out? Or is that still to be sorted out closer to the time? (Just want to make sure I've not missed anything - LOL!)
The list has already been sorted to give everyone a chance to put the receivers initials on the biscornu if they wish. :wink:

It probably would have help matters if I had of posted the final list on the first post of the thread so everyone could have seen. :doh:

But it is done now so you can have a wee look there. :wink:

I've designed mine in my head, now I just have to put pencil to paper. I'm a bit grumpy this morning because i dreamed I had found the perfect pattern, so real, but alas it was the evil dream gods up to their usual mischief

Well here's my completed biscornu! So happy with it as it's my first designed one, and also my first 'perfect' biscornu...as in the sides are all even!

I quite like bold and beautiful, hence why both sides are so busy!

Holy WOW girl!!! :shock:

That is GORGEOUS!!! :D

I have my biscornu all ready to stitch, but I am not allowed to start until I get the bookmark done first XD

I also have a mermaid biscornu waiting in the sidelines that demands to be stitched!

Stitching this up way faster than I thought possible considering I don't normally have time to stitch during the week days. The design I picked is super fun, thats why I think :D

Hope to have the stitching done by the end of this weekend, and get onto finishing the biscornu next. YAY!
