Day 11 : Parma

One Button a Day 2020 by Gina Barrett - Day 11 : Parma

Day 11 : Parma


This button started as a simple star wrap on a hexagon mould. I then added surface embroidery, including wrapping and grappé stitch. Oh, and a colonial knot!

I'm afraid I don't know exactly which perle cotton thread sizes I have used, as I raided my stash and there are no labels on these. I'm fairly certain there's a No 8 & No 12, although the purple might be a No 16...

The finished size is just over 25mm / 1" / 40L
