Here are the two finished Biscornus. I've done another design today and have been sewing them all up. Haven't put a button on the third one. Love Chris

1. The top two are by Martine (mops) can be bought from Yoriko's site - mygardened.com.au.
The third one is from Sewforum.

They are all beautiful, Chris! My favourite is Martine's design.

Yes, mine too. It so well digitised. I was really disappointed by the lower one on the Brother machine (which is underneath). The Husqvarna sewed it out much better! Love Chris

Wow they all look lovely...great job Chris :)
Does it have to be a cross stitch design for biscornu or its just preferred so that its not dense?

You can use any design that has interesting corners, filled, redwork, not just cross stitch. Have a look at http://youembroidery.com/19432_fuchsia-squ-digitised-this-one.html It is a 3-colour line art one I posted in YouEmbroidery. I posted a few different ones there as well.

Hi Fatima, no as Martine has said, they don't have to be done in Cross-stitch. I've done some others in line-work too. Any equilateral design would work just as well. Love Chris
by spendlove 18 Mar 2015
I've done them in all kinds of design.

Thanks a lot all you lovely ladies :)
Will try and find the best suitable design from my stash for a biscornu!

Lovely, Chris. I admire the themes and beautiful projects you come up with every year.
Seeing them I'd love to design a few more, but then I have to test them of course and my box of pincushions has so many in them already ...

Thanks Caroline, I've decided to remove the buttons as per Sue's suggestion. I was a bit hesitant when putting them on and they just sit better without the buttons. Love Chris
