First 2010 finish!!

I am so excited I finished my biscornu tonight! I think it turned out pretty good for a first attempt. Here are some pics:




The pictures are all over the place, sorry!! But I am done! Yay my first finish for 2010, feels good! It was not too hard to do, finishing the closing was a bit challenging but overall I enjoyed it.
I dismantled one of muy kids teddy bears that was heading out for donation to stuff this project. My hubby was mortified but my kids won't even notice so I didn't feel bad at all. I have a pic of the teddy and his open wound but since I am having pic problems tonight it may have to wait for another post. Good night all!!

  1. Looks great!! I think it was a great idea to reuse the teddy, especially when it was on it's way out already :)

  4. Wonderful job, Lorilee--and I love the black and white. How great that you thought of using the old stuffing from the bear :)

  6. Oh that is hilarious - something I would do! I've undone pillows for the stuffing before so I know the passion within. LOL Great biscornu. I've only made one - they are so pretty.
