New Entry in Etsy

Biscornu is finished.
The difference from others is the fully embroidered surface, not only parts of it.

I had to look up a biscornu because I'd never seen one before. This is such an interesting idea, I might have to try it myself.

The bigger the object, the more important is a strong seam, I guess! There are big cushions to put bronze gong bowls onto. They are sewn out of 12 pieces.

It might be a good idea to use this principle for bigger cushions.
