Day 133 : Plush

Day 133 : Plush

Nope, I still am not keen on the changes to the blogger layout. Guess I'll get used to it ;)

Today's button is one using the plushwork technique - so quite a boring name really, but it does best describe this very tactile button! I've used regular stranded embroidery cotton for the plush part, it almost looks like silk.

I've used a square button mould in a size we don't actually make - cut out a little larger for a commission at some time.

Egads! What has Blogger done to me - changing the layout and buttons and everything. So, my apologies if nothing on this post looks right!

Today's button is a wrapped and woven, I think the simplicity of two colours is quite nice. This could of course be made to go with just about anything by keeping the colour scheme simple.

I've used a No 2 button mould and No 12 cotton perle. I won't link today, as it will probably take me another 20 minutes to do it properly, lol!

Size: 20mm / 13⁄16" / 32L

Today's button is really quite straightforward, a V wrap with a little bird's eye button added to it. I like it though and as a larger button think it would look quite nice on a summer jacket. In fact, I think I might have a linen jacket in this colour...

I've used a No 4 mould and No 12 cotton perle, along with linen thread for the bird's eye.
