Day 87 : Tile

One Button a Day 2020 by Gina Barrett - Day 87: Tile

Day 87 : Tile


I have to say, I am quite surprised I haven't got a button with this name yet (and quite pleased as I was struggling for an alternative). So, some badly thought out mini needlepoint for today's button - I didn't get the border quite right as I miscounted the squares early on. I still like it though, mistakes and all. Sometimes we just have to accept them, right?

How is everyone coping with the social distancing, and staying in? Good I hope. We are quite homebodies really, so I know it isn't so troublesome for us as it is for some. It is odd not nipping out to the shops if we need something, and of course not going into work and keeping that routine is unusual. I'm having trouble getting into doing the paperwork that needs doing... 

So, perle No 12 cotton and a No 8 mould used for this button.
