A biscornu is an interesting little eight-sided pincushion that has become very popular in recent months. The word biscornu is derived from a French adjective, meaning skewed, quirky or irregular. biscornu are basically made from two embroidered squares sewn together on point; the corner of one square meets the middle of the other as the two pieces are whip-stitched together and stuffed, creating the a quirky, skewed pillow. Additionally, many are finished off with a button in the center of the design top and bottom. uses for biscornu's.. decoration pin, cushions, tree ornaments etc... |
