A Biscornu from Barb!

Barb Q. and I have been exchanging ornaments at Christmas for a number of years. This is the 4th ornament from Barb that will hang on my tree.

This year she sent me a biscornu (biscornu is French for oddly shaped thing, or something like that). It is made up of two four sided pieces of cloth, sewn together to make an 8-sided piece. It is meant to be a pin cushion, but this one is an ornament.

I just love it! Thank you Barb! It will hang proudly in the "Barb section" of my tree!

EVERYONE should have a Barb section in their home, IMHO. LOL!!
