Once again I have made a biscornu. Received a journal on Thursday and a drawing appeared in the Journal for children to colour. Thought it would stitch into a nice biscornu. I asked the people concerned and with their OK I asked a special person to digitise it for me. Stitched it out and completed it today. I am sending this biscornu to the lady who did the original drawing. Hope you like it
29801Thank you for your fantasie and the effort, the special story to go with it and thanks to you and Martine for generously sharing

Thank You. I am a Fuchsia Freak,having once owned a Fuchsia Nursery with my Late Husband and have been President of the Australian Fuchsia Society twice. If you could see my lounge it is covered with Fuchsia Lore. Have done a few Cross Stitch of Fuchsias as well.

Just to add to this. I actually went out and picked a Fuchsia and the colours I used are a perfect match for that fuchsia, but you can use whatever colours you wish.

Did you see the new freebie at ABC today? I think that might work too, I'm going to give it a try :)

No I did not know about the CWA and the Biscornu. I always wanted to join the CWA but have always been too busy to do so. Would love to see them when thay are all finished. I have many pattern for Cross stitch Biscornu, but am too impatient and would rather do them with my machine.

Thankyou, She has no idea that I am sending this to her she thinks I have made a cross stitch of the design.
1690647649Ooh! You clever girl! I love this and I reckon they are great gifts for all of us sewers. A lovely pattern with the Fuschias and I know the recipient will be absolutely thrilled. Love and blessings Chris

Shirlene, I am not sure. It is up to the dear person who kindly did the digitising for me. I have had permission from the Lady who did the original.
