Biscornu complete

I put the final stitches on this late yesterday.......

I love the tiny heart button in the center. One of the things I like about making these is the putting it together part. It is fun to watch the shape appear.

I did not add the side beads as suggested. I just wanted a few for each of the 8 sides. I did put the corner pearls on.
On to the last....I can not believe it...but yes the last of the challenge projects....from day 7.
So nice to chat with you and for you to take the time to visit and comment. Have a great 4th of July day.

Almost but not quite

Well I was zooming along when problems with photo/computer/me! If you stopped by my other blog you know what this ramble is about. Anyway.....

Here it is ready to be stitched together. It would have been if and I do mean if I did not spend the morning with the Geek Squad.  Now to back stitch each piece then to attach them and add my beads along the  edge and the pearls in the corners. I really am looking forward to getting this done.
As always, thank you for stopping by and cheering me on. Have a great day.

Side one done

I really am happy theat side one is finished......

I will start on side 2 tomorrow. I think this is going to be really pretty. The edge when the sides are sewn together there is an edging of beads.
Well, I have work today and tomorrow and a break for a day from this and work on my exchange piece.
Thank you for stopping by and have a great day.

One side finished and one to go

I will only say that i am happy to finally get this side done. I hope the other side will go a little easier.

It really is pretty....and once the first border is stitched I can start the other side.

Each corner will have a pearl bead and the soft colors in the over dyed thread is pretty. I am hoping to get a better picture that will show the colors in real color. I think once it is complete and together it will show better. Today I plan to work on my exchange piece...and then back to this later. It has been very nice chatting with you...I hope you have a great day.

Another corner but still 5 to stitch

I bet you are getting bored with this corner stitching. I hope not because you cheering keeps me going!

Not looking too bad-----just one more to go then I start all over with the other side. But having done this side will make it easier to get the other one finished. I really know that adding the beads as I go is making it nicer for me.
Well, I need another cup of coffee....and the morning paper. The day is already hot....it is 85. Last night at 9 PM it was 95 which tells you the next day will begin very warm indeed. No cool down time.
It has been a pleasure having you visit and thank you for the kind comments and emails. Have a wonderful day.

Corner #2 finished and 6 to go

I liked this more today....

It is time consuming though. I think a corner a day is all that I can handle.

I think it helped s that I have another to switch off to when this becomes tiring. I am working on an exchange piece so do not go looking for pics yet. A short post today because I am exhausted after the one I just posted at my other blog!
Thank you fro checking on my progress. I hope you have a great day.

a corner stitched----7 more to go

This is still progressing slowly. I seem to have a hangup with it.

I see that 3 of the specialty stitches with beads along each side are off......grrrrr! I will redo them when I get to that area.

the corner is pretty and I only must do have 7 more to do. It is a bit time consuming as i said I am not fond of sparkly linen. I think that is why the mental block is. I know it will be very nice when finished.

Off to work today...the store is getting ready for inventory---so in between customers, we are wrapping the bolts of fabric.

It is always so nice to have you stop by. Have a great day.
