ANOTHER LITTLE BISCUIT

Australian Eco/Fiber Artist India Flint calls these Biscornu 

which I believe is French

 and translates to biscuit.

I learned to make them in one of her delightful on-line classes.

BTW,

her newest online course starts Feb.1 and I believe you can still enroll

here. 

I love making them and teaching others to do the same.

They are a great way to use up scraps of fabric and special threads.

This one was made from a few eco-dyed pieces I had in my stash.

The fabrics were a bit too plain for me so I added a little embroidery.

And then my favorite last step is to pick out a button for each side.

I believe the one in the top photo is wood 

and the one here is the back side of an abalone button.

Every time I stick a needle or pin in it,

I smile.

They are just so cute.
