The Button Completed
Do you remember the child's game, Button, Button, Who's Got The Button?
This project reminds me of that.
As I said yesterday, this was a most fun project. Something new and different.
Here are the final steps to completion:
 |
| In order to finish the back of the button I cut a circle of orange felt very slightly smaller than the button. |
 |
| That piece was whipstitched to the back of it. |
 |
| The thread was not knotted after the whipstitch. It was then brought up in the center. Now a loop will be created in order to stitch the button to it's final destination. |
 |
| The now-famous chopstick is used to gauge a loop size. Two loops of the thread create the base for the following step, which is to lap the thread through this loop to make a sturdy shank for the button. |
 |
| Now the loop is reinforced by bringing the thread around and around it. It now will stand up. |
 |
| The Back of the Button |
 |
| The Front of the Button This was a very satisfying project. Thank you again to Diane Gilleland of Craftstylish for the tutorial! Good Evening, All |
