:doh: I ran out of thread! I just ordered some more, but I won't be able to finish this till the end of the week. It's looking pretty cute so far, though :)

I would love to join in! This is my first time joing an exchange but sounds like a lot of fun, and I love stitching biscornu.

I am liking what I am doing but I just realised the pattern I was looking at both sides are different sizes and i noticed it before sitching the second side so I am making adjustments and making sure I stay with the integrity of the design but I feel it's just a template and I am working with it... I should be finished with the design by the weekend and then work on putting it together.

I got my extra threads in the mail yesterday so finished the stitching last night and started to add some bling :D I should be finished tonight. Are we posting pictures when we are done, or are we waiting to post pics until after our recipients receive them?

I think I am going to say surprise, unless someone has a serious objection to it.

This is going to kill me but I have to take my name off the list as I will be too busy with my wedding stationary project. I love biscornu exchanges!!!! I have not done any stitching this year. :( So here is an up to date list without my name.

My friend is getting married on 29th April and she asked me to do her wedding invitations and I agreed to do them as her wedding gift. Now she has stretched it out to day invites, evening invites, order of service, placecards and favour cards which will say instead of favours they are donating money to charities close to their hearts.

Wow! You are an amazing friend. That is really cool about the charity. I think I will save that idea and maybe use it myself one day.

Boy I need to hurry finish mine up. I thought I would be done with it by last weekend but it got push to this weekend. I had to tweek the design because the pattern I had was really messed up so I just made it my own and used it as a template lol.

This took a while to finally complete but in the end I am happy with it that I actually wish I could keep it. But I thought and it would actually be nice to give one to a fellow stitcher and know they will be pleased because it took a lot of blood, sweat, tears, and some cursing... well lots of cursing and it looks pretty :D.
