Biscornus

Since I have to take things easy, and try to keep bed-rest, I decided to try to stitch some little things (the pattern for Egypt is just a 'tiny little bit' to big work with :-) ) and decided on some biscornus. I've finished these two, one with a button and one without. The motives are 25x25 stitches, so these are real small ones. I've got one more to put together, a slighty bigger one 37x37 stitches




Someone asked me if I was going to make a baby afghan, that made me think about it :-) I'm in doubt if I have enough skill to make a beautifull afghan, but the question certainly made me interested in them! Unfortunately, it's not something I can find in my LNS, so it would mean some overseas shopping. I've been looking at 123stitch, and would prefer a kit, so I'm sure I have all the right things. But which to chose?; which ones do you like the most?
1 Snoozy Day
2 Pooh with bees
3 Eeyore
4 Sleepy Bunnies
5 Sweet Animal
6 B is for Baby
7 I have another idea...




For those following my pregnancy, I'm still and the meds to stop contractions, hopefully I'll know more soon, and I'm keeping my fingers crossed - praying - hoping that baby stays put where it is for a week or 4-5 more :) If you want to take a guess as to the babies gender (if you already know, please don't tell), there's a poll in the sidebar

The afghans are real easy, you will not have a problem. Keep the little one and you on bed rest for as long as possible.

Your biscornus are adorable. Get all the bed rest you need for the little one. Both of you will be in my thoughts.

Love those mini biscornus - wow they must be fiddly to assemble! Good luck, and just rest.

Congrats on your biscornu finishes, Katrien. My suggestion on the afghan is to do a Winnie the Pooh one since you did the calendar :) Sending good vibes that the baby stays put for a while.
