Happiness is..

a new Biscornu & this one is in lemon

yellow & blue. The front says

'Happiness is'. I gave this Biscornu a

a couple of new twists!

As you can see it is white on yellow

aida. But I did not use white

floss - instead I used 2 strands of white

candlewicking yarn. I was wanting

to try something new - so this Biscornu

became fair game. This yarn filled in the

aida cloth very well. It did not give me

anymore trouble to use than regular floss.

The back says 'me, u, us, we. It

is suppose to represent the entire

family - hubby, wife, & children, But

it is can also say my dear hubby, my dear wife,

my loving hubby, my loving wife. In other words

just for you & your dear hubby!

I used little yellow Swarvoski crystals.

You might not can see them but

the crystals do glow & shine.

Try not to mind my messy desk.

It sort of stays that way!

Here is the Biscornu's other

twist. Yes you guessed it - I

placed a magnet on the inside

just to hold a pair of small

embroidery scissors.

See - I am holding up the

biscornu. The scissors stay

onto the pincushion very well.

I hope you can see the words

better on this photo. White floss

on anything of color is hard to see -

but the results can be stunning.

This biscornu can be stitched & put together

in one day - that is if you have the time.

Instead of crystals try using jewelry, buttons,

or tassels to hang from each of those

quirky sides.

I will post the pattern in a few

days. Thanks for stopping by!
