May I present the Phillies Biscornu, my entry in the Craftzine Stitch N Pitch contest?I thought how much the stitching on the edges of a biscornu reminded me of a baseball, so I did my seams in baseball red. The Phillies' "P" and blue star logos decorate the object, which is remarkably round for something made from two squares of fabric. If I don't win (and really, what are the odds?) I will make the chart available here at some later date, once I've sat down and charted the whole thing (I do have a chart of the P available for all you Phillies fans). Here's my Phillies fun fact: I work with a former Phillies team doctor.

What an awesome idea!! Way to go! And good luck in the contest :)
LOVE it! Fingers crossed for you!
Anna-love your Phillies Biscornu! Very creative and I'll keep my fingers crossed you win. Very creative! We're masochists which means we're Cub fans. We understand that no matter how good the season starts out the Cubs will break our hearts!
I wish I had an answer for you on how to make cross stitch cool. Been thinking about it for the last year or so. It gets a bad rap and it's unfair. Knitting is so practical, cross stitch just is, that alone IMHO makes it cool.
I love it.
Great job, you are very creative. Good luck with the contest. I am another true blue Cub fan though.

WAY TO GO!!!!!! I love the biscornu. I think it is so original and a sure winner in my book. :) Good luck!!!
How clever! I might have to try it with a Nats "curly W". Good luck in the contest!
Great idea and looks really good - you've got my vote (or would if I could).
And why wouldn't you win? So darling and so very creative!! GOOD LUCK!
How clever! How creative!
Job well done : )
I am very impressed! Your biscornou is lovely! I love the simple, but obviously baseball design!
So cute! This is really a clever design. I love the star button. Good luck!
Very nice design! I love it! Good luck. I know what you mean...I live in Maryland (go o's??) but love the red sox...have to keep it under the hat!
I love reading your blog...I think we could make for an interesting lunch....we think a lot alike! Scary huh?
well done! If it only featured the Cardinals, though, it would be perfect :) So glad to see you entered!
A little late but I'm just catching up on blogs...what a creative idea! It's a winner in my opinion.
