PIF (Pay It Forward) FOR Margaret S.

I'm already back from our short trip to Karuizawa!
It was great, I had so must fun time after a long time!!
Now I have been unpacking and organizing photos of our trip to post here, so please wait for some reports and photos of our journey!

Today I've got an e-mail from
Margaret S. to let me know that she has received my PIF gift safely!

I made her this Biscornu, when I thought of her, elegant and soft pale blue came up in my mind, so I decided to use this linen and decided to make something elegant!

Actually my printer has got something wrong, so I couldn't print out this pattern properly, so I stitched this as looking at PC screen (lol)

It was the first time for me to add beads around the edge for Biscornu, but it was so fun and turned out so beautifully!

At the back of this Biscornu, I just made it simple, just stitched this for four corner... and added large button on the center.

I'm happy to hear that she liked it and some goodies that I put together in the package!
This time I didn't add any teas in the package as I heard that Australia and New Zealand customs are very strict! :)
To make PIF gift as thinking about recipients is such a fun!
So I will make different gifts for each PIF member.

I will post some Reports of our journey next time!
Until then, Happy Stitching!




Design : referred Thistle and Clover Biscornu
