Day 66 : Bobble

One Button a Day 2020 by Gina Barrett - Day 66: Bobble

Day 66 : Bobble


Today's button is quite simple really, lots of colonial knots and a grappé surround. I love little knots, colonial and French are probably my favourites, with bullions a close second. I like the texture that they add to stitching. I also think that grappé works really well with a variegated thread. You can't see this so clearly head-on, but the side of the button is quite interesting! I've padded this button quite a bit too, which also shows off the stitches. I've used a No 3 mould.

Size: 27mm / just over 1" / 42L
