Biscornu Pincushion

This pincushion is a very simple pattern but looks marvelous.




Eight-sided, it is made by setting two squares at right angles to each other. 
The corners of one square are sewn to the centers of the sides of the other square. 

I used an easy lace to decorate it.

Update: I changed the lace. I also made a new and smaller pincushion with the same pattern but in different color, and I used some beads, too.
