This biscornu is embroidered in shades of rose and blue with overdyed cotton threads and finished with rocailles beads and a beautiful removable tassel. 

​

Both stitched sections are worked with one solid DMC six stranded cotton floss, one overdyed DMC six stranded cotton floss and one overdyed Romy's Creations six stranded cotton floss over the beautiful 32 ct linen 212L P.L. Ecru by Sotema, Italy.

​

The biscornu sides are joined together with overcast stitches while threading rocailles beads in matching color. Lastly, the biscornu is tufted with a little, blue button in the center.

​

The tassel is made with one skein of Romy's Creations six stranded cotton floss and the leftover stitching threads; the tassel neck is decorated with same beads used on the biscornu sides and a large crystal burgundy glass bead is threaded through the cording.
