I found a few patterns for biscornu.Here's some edumacation for ya!
Biscornu is a French adjective that means "that which has an irregular form, with projections" or "complicated and bizarre."
To a seamstress or an embroiderer, a biscornu is a tiny eight-sided embroidered pillow that can be used as a pincushion, an holiday ornament, key chain/cell phone decoration, a scissor fob, the centerpiece of a wreath, filled with flower petals or herbs to make a sachet... They're great for anything that you can think to do with a tiny cushion.

I started making these and couldn't stop they are sooooo cute and easy to make! I've made one for me and one for Marina in Australia and three for sale on my Etsy site.
Love It!!!
Here's a quick shot of an exhausted homecoming on a Friday night:
