Biscornu?

[HelloCloe]

So I want to do a little Biscornu for my friend for christmas and I'm finding it very difficult to locate any patterns, free or otherwise.

Has anyone else done one before?

I was think ing about making one of these, too! I found this page (http://www.creativepoppypatterns.com/st ... -8_16.html) that has free printable instructions on how to make one. It seems pretty easy to follow. If you type in "biscornu patterns" on google, you can find a whole bunch of free patterns to stich on them (or make up your own, of course!). Good luck!

Google is awesome for finding free things! i have found quite a few free biscornu patterns, but I have yet to make one....maybe I shall try to make one soon! Good luck!

Might sound a stupid question but what are they for?

[gamerwolff]

Well from what I understand they can be used As pin cushions or paperweights or both

***Moved to Techniques/Guides, wasn't sure where to put it but seemed like best place for now ***

Well, you can use a biscornus as a key ring, like me...

Cool idea!

I didn't have any idea what a biscornu was until I read this thread but I must say that halloween one in the first post is awesome! I might even have to make a biscornu someday now.

I've been thinking of doing one of these for a while...just haven't found the time......
