Now, Siti, you are being your own harshest critic. I'm sure your biscornu is better than you imagine. And it'll get to the post office when it does: you aren't responsible for the opening hours or the time constraints applied by your job. Don't Worry! [/quote]

Thanks Serinde for the nice word to relieve my guilt. All the biscornus are very nice and cute too. Shall we coninue this activity ..maybe having some theme of colors, or season etc...

So many beautiful biscornus! Well done everyone! And especially those who did it the first time in their life!

Siti, as I have told you, don't worry, I can wait, and I am sure it will be worth the waiting.

A good idea to continue, I simply love these little sweeties

Glad it arrived and that you like it, Mauveme.

My other half notified that there is a package arrive for me in malaysia. I guess its the biscornu..I asked him to take a photo, I will update here once he had emailed to me the photo.

..this is the biscornu that i received from pixxie...sorry the picture is not so clear...taken by my other half ....thanks pixxie...those are my favorite color combination....i love it!!

these are all so amazing!! I'm going to have to try doing one soon!! Love the butterflies

That's so pretty Pixie, well done. Colours are great. I like that combo too,.

I'm glad you like it Siti, those are my favourite colours too and i seem to be having a butterfly obsession at the moment

Karen - please do try...i bet you gonna have fun. I started mine about 5 years ago...and I never look back...but please be aware, its addictive ....i always get an inspirational from French stitcher ...I guess they make a very pretty biscornu!...

We should try having other exchange such as pinkeep or needlecase etc...but this will be a bit longer to stitch I guess as it takes time to assemble them togather...

I've found a few really good designs for them that I like, one's an adorable frog design, but my main thing is to find a really good tutorial to explain how to assemble it when it is stitched. I've found one, online but having a very difficult time downloading it, likely my dial up the issue

karen - maybe you could try google image ...find under "biscornu tutorial"....all related sites will come out and you can use as a reference....that's how i learnt my stitching as i not have enough time to attend a formal class due to my work schedule...so far it's working...best of luck!!

I thought I would post a pic of the one I stitched for bert?! (I hope I remembered it right )

This is the front



and the back



I know its not perfect, but I'm pretty pround of it as a 1st attempt at a biscornu

It's lovely, Heidi!

Really lovely, gorgeous colours

That's gorgous. So bright and cheery.

These are lovely biscornu!
