As Promised…

Here are the pictures of my canvas work biscornu. The design appeared in the latest edition of “Stitch with the Embroidery Guild” magazine. I stitched it in DMC threads and used the colours on the opposite ways on the top & bottom. I finished it off with 2 vintage mother of pearl buttons in blue.

I really enjoyed stitching this piece…haven’t decided what to do with it as yet….

I have just received an email from Jo at Polstitches to say that my Dragon Floss package is on it’s way…oooo my mouth is watering already…I of course will post pictures for you all to drool over too…lol

Well off to start stitching my August Christmas ornie for the SAL now…take care and have fun!

Your Biscornu is beautiful. Never thought of doing a canvas pattern! Can you tell me more about the edition of "Stitch with the Embroidery Guild" magazine! Can one purchase this magazine?
