My first zigouigoui

I've been watching these beauties on some French stitchers blogs. So I couldn't resist to do one!!! It took me five hours, very little time considering that I'm multitasking... Here's how I did it:

Materials:
28ct antique white evenweave.
DMC floss 895, 704, 602, 209, 947 and 444
Needle
Beads
Tiny purple flat bell

1. Stitch the design, has to be a square. I used the blackwork biscornu design, mine; before pulling it together, is 1.8 inches long!
2. Fold it and sew the edges as done wit the biscornu.
3. Fold it again, the other way around and close one side. Fill it with acrylic cotton, then close the other side.
4. Add tassels, beadings... Whatever your imaginations tells you to do (that's the fun part!!!)
5. Then you have this beauty!
   

About the word: I read somewhere that it is a word that means "small object or drawing you don't know how to call" and also stands for sex... lol
