Biscornu

Did not need a pincushion at all, but could not resist making one. Material is upholstery fabric. It embroiders well so I think I'll make a cover for a footstool next.

You should see my collection. I still use the one I made at school aged 8. But added quite a few since then.

That's a beautiful pincushion, Martine! The gold swirls are lovely. have you used metallic thread?
Hugs, Lidia

Yes, I did. I resized the design file (not the embroidery file) I used in the heart ornament to about half the size and added and rotated 3 times. It stitched out equally well.
