Hi Ford, Thanks for a great tutorial :) Fabric count was a great help. I'm just starting out, trying to make a Biscornu so I thought I'd first start by making a prototype. I back stitched 60 x 60 then cut 1/2 inch seam allowance. Well, that fabric count was way off ! It's obvious, looks more rectangular that square. Now I know :)

I made one with a Russian design motif and stuffed it with whole cloves to hang in my clothes closet as a sachet. Over the years the oil from the cloves has discolored the aida cloth and given it an antique look that I rather love...a happy accident!

Is there a way to fabric if one direction has 14 stitches per inch and the other direction is 13 stitches?

[@SonovaStitch]

You can get it wet and stretch it, like blocking knitting. It's really hard to do after you've stitched though.

Thanks for responding!

Great video, but where’s your bird?

Ok so he still didn't explain what a biscornu was, is it a pillow for your pet hamster?

[@janetrothwell4448]

In the video description, it says pin cushion. I didn’t know what it was either until I googled the word, when the video was in the “upcoming” videos.

[@SonovaStitch]

Could be, if you have a very spoiled hamster! The one I show in the video I use as a pin cushion. The one I'll assemble next week I made as a Christmas ornament!

[@shemsialhaddad2579]

Biscornu is the name for that object (a small cushion made from two squares at right angles to each other). You can use it as decoration or as a pin cushion or whatever. Some people stack a few of them to make a decorative tower. They look cool all stacked up.
