Biscornus and More UPDATED

If you aren't a counted thread person or a sampler fiend, you might not have heard of biscornu patterns. These are oddly shaped pin cushions and they are all the rage among the counted thread set, as Ada Hayden describes here.

Kimberly is working on original biscornu designs (with matching original fabric) to be a monthly club at Needle Works in Austin.  You can see some of the patterns she is creating on her blog.

It is my pleasure, Kimberly. What would we do without you designers? It is just a thank you for everything!
