And I have a question Do we need to tell our preferences: any of them - color, size, fabric, etc..Biscornu may be made into Christmas tree ornament, maybe someone might want it

well i was thinking of a christmas theme biscornu.... and I think some of us already have designs ready so it will be a bit difficult to follow someone colours preferences ....

sorry for any confusion, i meant what is the biggest it can be? 3 and half inches like the halloween one or bigger/smaller

I wasn't going to join, but I have to wait for some supplies before I can continue with some other projects, so timing should work out nicely.

dominique66, as the organizer of this exchange you need to post a list of requirements for the members who have joined to follow.

Things like fabric, thread, size, theme, if there are going to be any restrictions, when you need to be finished and sent out by and so on.

We have had a few problems of late with exchanges so could you please put together the reqirements and post them so all can see.

Started stitching tonight...

I said to myself that the halloween biscornu exchange was my last exchange for this year. I can't resist biscornus now and especially a Christmas one too.

So I am in....what are the rules?

Kell, what are the dimensions? x

The stitched area is just 2.25 inches on mine, but I'll be waiting to hear the full dimensions so I can add a border if it needs to be larger.

is dominique66 still running this or is someone going to take this one over, i have two designs but i dont know which one to do cause i dont know what size its going to be

Not sure pixxie, I would do it but I am still trying to finish the Halloween biscornu exchange.

We could probably just do it the same size as the halloween one...I preferred that size rather than going too small...less fiddly.

Shin, could you please announce the Halloween biscornu size here.
I'm thinking about smth between 70x70 and 100x100 points, but it will depend on the fabric count. I don't what it to be very big, although there are several awesome large designs.

I think we all need to help dominique66
Would all the participants answer the following questions please:
1. Biscornu size preferences
2. Aida or evenweave
3. Shipping requirements: I think we need to ship via registered mail - it may be critical for the international shipments.
4. Smth else?
I think these are enough for starting?

My answers
1. between 3 and 4 inches edited(!)
2. Evenweave definitely
3. Only registered mail with tracking number
4. -

the halloween one was 3.5 inches square which on 16 count aida was 56x56

1. between 70x70 and 100x100 points (on 14 count aida 70x70 is 5 inches)
2. aida or evenweave
3. Only registered mail with tracking number
4. -

1. 3 - 3.5 inches (don't want it to be TOO big)
2. aida, evenweave or linen - stitchers' choice
3. At least get proof of postage (I always do,just in case)
4. Do we post pics when finished stitching or after recipient receives it?
