Then at our January meeting we got the instructions and stitching time to turn the strips into the biscornu! I was able to stitch at the meeting to the point of needing to add the stuffing and was happy about that! Here it is all stuffed and sewn shut. I think I maybe could have added more stuffing, but I am happy with it!
I have it set out on the front entry table with some other snowmen for the January display. The tall fellow I made about 12 years ago and would do a few things differently now, oh well, I still think he is cute. The wooden one I got at a local craft fair this past fall and he is made of local aspen wood. The trio at the right were the SGR gift to chapter members at the December Christmas Tea.
We got a tad bit more snow (about an inch) last night, but with sunshine and warmer temps forecasted the new stuff should be gone in no time. But I think these snow folk are safe inside.
Happy Stitching!!

I love biscornu's...and and your's is very nice. I have not seen this kind before. I have only made the one's using 2 squares...a strip...now that is different. I will have to try to find a pattern for one to try! You did a nice job with it.
Pretty snowflake biscornu
Your biscornu is gorgeous!!!!!! I love the blue fabric, it makes the white stands out really nice~
Very pretty finish.... love the white on that blue fabric.
happy stitching...
Beautiful work!!
Great finish! I've done a couple of biscornus, but the 15 sided ones look so amazing, well done :)
Wonderful job on the biscornu! I keep saying I'm going to try one of these I still haven't got around to it yet.
One of these days, lol!
Very pretty biscornu - I've never seen one like that!
I love your snowflake biscornu! I've made the regular 4 sided ones before with just 2 stitched pieces, but have yet to get brave enough to try the 16 sided ones.
Very cute Biscornu! I have a pattern for a 15 sided Biscornu but have not had the courage to start it.
Happy Stitching
