Day 115 : Thingamajig

One Button a Day 2020 by Gina Barrett - Day 115 : Thingamajig

Day 115 : Thingamajig


This button is a little more mental than it appears in this image.  It is 15mm high, so very dimensional. It is made up of a chevron knot button made over a wooden No 24 mould. The knot is worked in linen threads and a bit of No 12 perle cotton. That perle cotton is also used to cover the large cloth ring at the base. The ring is very stiff and I've stitched the knot button to it. Although an odd button, I reckon it would look quite nice at the centre front of a summery tunic. :)

Size : 14mm /  9⁄16" / 22L
