New Biscornu

This is the large biscornu I have been working on this past week. It is called a 15 sided biscornu because it is made up of 15 squares. Each square is 2" in size, there are 5 red squares, 5 pink squares and then 5 squares with red and pink beads. It took me about 3 days to sew all the little squares into place, after I had made the 15 squares. The finished item was definitely worth it but I don't think I will be making any more of this type of biscornu any time soon - LOL.



The photo below is of Shalom with his 3 sisters taken on our day out a couple of weeks ago. We had a really fun day with lots of jokes that had us all in stitches.
