Lavender Bouquet Biscornu COUNTED CROSS STITCH CHART BY FABY REILLY DESIGNS What a beautiful biscornu with graceful butterflies and a delicate flower motif! Stitch it and stuff it with dried lavender, it will make a great gift. The real beauty of this project however is the exquisite stitching of the lavender flowers and stems, a clever combination of cross stitch, back stitch and French knots. No fewer than 13 colors are used to convey the delicate shadings of the flowers. All stitches are carefully explained and the charts are easy to follow. The pattern includes a great number of French knots. If you are not familiar with them, or have found them tricky in the past, follow Faby Reilly's helpful advice: "Use your left thumb to keep the cotton near the knot nice and flat against the fabric while you thread your needle and the cotton through the knot". You can download a free Biscornu tutorial from our stitcher resource page. This pattern is part of the Lavender Bouquet series that includes a humbug, a biscornu, a pouch, a needlebook and an ortbag.
