Day 110 : Woven Ball

One Button a Day 2020 by Gina Barrett - Day 110 : Woven Ball

Day 110 : Woven Ball


Perhaps not the most exciting name for today's button, but it is what it is. This is a simpler version of a 17th century button and yes, another one to go into the book that I am working on. There are actually many different ways to create a basket weave effect, and a technique that one person finds difficult, another may find much easier, so I hope to include a few variations.

This one has used a perle cotton No 8 and the centre is a No 24 bead.

Size: 9mm / 3⁄8" / 16L
