I am keen to make some fabric covered buttons decorated with embroidery and or beading. I love the passementerie look, and want to make some buttons to work in with the embroidery on the 1919 Butterick coat. I am finding it difficult to find wooden moulds, might have to improvise, or hunt down a wood turner.Zho Zhohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12991960930747209598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7991508020081019463.post-86629646080867920062011-07-19T11:01:49.399-07:002011-07-19T11:01:49.399-07:00Thanks for the interesting post.
