The first Biscornu of 2010 and other stuff

The other evening I finished the Anniversary Biscornu, the first biscornu finish of 2010. First there is a photo of the underside and then one of the completed biscornu with my stork scissors so that you can get an idea of the size. The usual mirror shot will be in the sidebar. This took over an hour to make up!

Yesterday, with snow falling, we took a trip to Harrogate. During the journey I was able to stitch Just Nan's Fraidy Frog from the 2009 Halloween issue of Just Cross Stitch.

This week has seen White Nights back in the rotation. I have managed to complete two more houses. Tonight I will do a little more work on the corners, well that's the plan.

White Nights
Happy Easter!

    The biscornu is so sparkly! Love it.

    Ohh... that Just Nan is on my list to stitch. Maybe I will move it up the list after seeing yours.

    Great stitching!
