Thank you.

For the cushion, I make backstitch - in 2 pieces of fabric.
And then i make like the biscornus...

I am sorry, but i am not able to explain in english....

Thank you so much for your kind words.

That's a very clear explanation, it's how I do it as well! It gives a very neat finish, doesn't it?
