Day 173: Ordinary


One Button a Day 2020 by Gina Barrett - Day 173 : Ordinary

Day 173 : Ordinary.


Today's button is really described by it's name. Quite an ordinary layered zwirnknopf, with additional embroidery. Worked over a clear acrylic ring, so you do get an extra impression of depth. 

While ordinary, as far as techniques go, I think it is good to think about the basics every once in a while - go back and remember what started it all! I worked a long time on a button idea last night that just did not want to work. It was not going to happen, period. But, turning to something more ordinary reduced the stress levels right away.
