      amariakay1 Thanks so much! Sorry my hands drifted out of screen a few times, but biscornu are really fun to make, there are so many possibilities! If you like really pretty embellished patterns, you should check out Faby Reilly's biscornu patterns, they're stunning. 😊♥️

    • @peacockandfig
      @peacockandfig  Рік тому +1

      Glad you enjoyed it! I have a tutorial on my channel about beginning and ending your threads, but you have a bunch of options (a small knot, pin stitch, running the thread under other stitches then snipping it, etc). 😊

    ❤ where do you find to purchase the material to make the biscornu?

    • @peacockandfig
      @peacockandfig  Рік тому

      I'm not sure what you mean Dorothy -- the biscornu is stitched on regular cross stitch fabric that you can get anywhere you buy stitching fabric from. If memory serves for this piece I used a linen 18 count Aida from Zweigart, a German manufacturer that's sold in better stitching shops or online. But you can use any cross stitch fabric you have access to. And then obviously just a red embroidery floss to stitch the design onto the fabric. 😊

    I would like to know how you do the first outside line - the stitching line.

    • @peacockandfig
      @peacockandfig  3 роки тому

      I'm not quite sure what you mean Marny, but likely you mean the pattern itself -- it has a line of backstitch all around the edge exactly so you can use this method to put it together. 😊

      @@peacockandfig Can you show how to start from the very beginning - how to cut, where to start stitching. I am sorry to not know how to explain 'from the beginning' - whole fabric, measuring, cutting, counting in for rows/columns, middle of pattern on square - and on and on. All of these are what stymies me so I don't even start. Once I know this info - I'm fine with stitching! TY!

    Julie, first off I am so grateful you made this video! I have been looking *everywhere* to find a how-to for making such a crisp line of the join with this. I make biscornus all the time but this is the first time I've seen how to make this sharp edge demonstrated. But now the other shoe...please don't think I'm being mean or cross, but HOW I wish you'd do this vid over. All the action takes place *out of frame* and I cannot see what you're doing and it is SO frustrating!!! I know I'm asking you to do a lot of extra work, but surely I'm not the only one to have mentioned this? I know it is very hard to stitch and keep everything in frame and in focus all at once, and I'm sorry to be a complainer.
    I really do appreciate you having made this video. I'm just finding it hard to follow when the work keeps going out of frame and then comes back and the thing I was straining to learn is magically done and I didn't get to see how!

      Hi Claude! My name is Dana 😊 I'm really sorry it's going out of frame, unfortunately I can't refilm it as that would literally be about three days of work at minimum to restitch the sample plus the filming and video editing. I tried really hard to edit the current video the best I could, but as you can imagine it's quite difficult trying to do very detailed work and look through a camera at the same time. At least each side of the biscornu is the same, so I hope you can get enough out of it to figure out what to do. 😊❤️

    • @peacockandfig
      @peacockandfig  2 роки тому

      Hi Leslie, I'm sorry I can't, that was literally days of work just to create the biscornu, let alone the filming. It's the same stitch over and over, I hope you can figure it out from what you can see. 😊

    • @peacockandfig
      @peacockandfig  6 років тому +2

      Hi there! I'm so sorry about that -- the camera is actually on a tripod overhead, so it's really hard to look through the camera at the same time as showing what to do. I am working on figuring out a better way to film the tutorials so my hands do stay in screenshot. I do hope you got the general idea of what to do though! 🙂

      Haha I actually did for that video, but the issue is the camera for that one was kind of in the way of my ability to see my hands, so I ended up moving my hands so I could see what I was doing (which obviously made my hands drift out of the little marked off area). Doh.... 😂
