Cheetah Biscornu

This is my August biscornu....from the Cross Stitch Happy blog, and called the Cheetah Biscornu. I matched the colors to the cat face buttons I had, and stitched it on heatherfield aida. Turned out nice, and it's fairly large.


I'm now working on finishing up the Alla Turca SAL, and then will get back to Castles in the Air!
More to come......

March biscornu

Growth Rings kept me busy most of the month, but I had enough time to get my March biscornu done for the Basket of Biscornu blog. This is from the blog Cross Stitch Happy (both are in my blog list down on the right if you are interested) and is called Roberta's Cats Scissor Fob. It's very tiny for a biscornu, only 2 inches across! I changed the colors of DMC called for, and used a scrap of 28ct watercress linen from my stash. The top has a crystal bicone, and the bottom a button of a mouse!

And this is the back...
don't know why Blogger keeps rotating this one picture, but you get the idea!


And, since the orange cat color was inspired by my other male cat Leo, here's a pic of him sleeping too....
