New and Noteworthy!
The Printemps Biscornu
Delight in
making this
enjoyable-to-embroider
project that will remind you of
why you
fell in love with needlework!
If you’ve ever wanted a needlecraft project that’s as satisfying as it is stunning, this is it. Printemps, my newest biscornu embroidery pattern, combines artistry and construction in the most delightful way. Designed for stitchers from patient beginners to expert needleworkers who crave beauty and challenge — it’s worth every stitch and every cent. The comprehensive pattern includes clear step-by-step diagrams, lovely photos, and helpful instructions to embroider and assemble the biscornu, and to create the pretty Dorset button on top. I am very excited: this is my first downloadable pattern, and I think that stitchers will really enjoy making this unusual biscornu—perfect as a pincushion, an ornament, or a small ringbearer’s cushion. It features some of my favorite spring flowers—lilies of the valley, lilacs, and pansies.
