After seeing all the pretty biscornus that have been posted I finally had to try it myself. Here are my projects.

Thank you all for your kind comments. I'm afraid I'm addicted or at least until another bright idea comes along. Next I'm going to try the scrubby dishcloth that SICK posted last week. Has anyone done that yet?

You did a very nice job on these. Love the top left one.

These are lovely and I love the waffle weave - gives a most interesting texture.

These are just stunning!! What a great idea using the teatowel! It gives them a lovely textured look. Great work and well done .. it is addictive isn't it!

very pretty, are you addicted like the rest of us?

You did very nice job

Lovely, excellent recycling! I love the idea of recycling anything that is not totally ruined. Great job!

They are all very pretty. I like the tea towel you used.

Very cute. and yes they are addictive. Shirley

Beautiful! I love all of them. Hope you had fun making them. Lyn

I had a tea towel that was kind of a waffle weave but it had a stain on it, so I cut it up and made three of these. the fourth (pink one)was made from a recyled napkin. The bottom two are made from a Cuties design, the top two are made from a quilt block that I liked because it had hearts on it.

I learned that the secret to getting well defined corners is to sew only 1/8 of the design at a time, stopping and backstitching after each 1/8. I have only been embroidering for about a year but I have been sewing for more than 50 so I have learned a few tricks of the trade.

They are very pretty.

You did good.

Good job - you had better watch - they may be addictive.
