Last night I peeked in at The Compleatly Dressed Anachronist, to see that Edyth had posted her new monthly goodie. This month she chose to showcase blog postings on the making of cloth buttons. One in particular stood out. While most instructions require the maker to cut out circles of fabric, this one manipulated a square piece, using the thread to gather all the corners into what quickly becomes a nice round ball.
This morning I found myself a scrap of polar fleece and some embroidery thread and decided to give it a whack - a whack which resulted in a happy, gargantuan fleecy button. My life is forever changed.
Receive the gospel!
