Embroidered Buttons

May 12th, 2008 by Sallad

I mailed off my embroidered buttons today for the swap. These were pretty easy to make, especially for someone like me who really hasn’t done embroidery before.

I embroidered a swatch of linen, using an embroidery hoop to hold it tight, and then used a Cover Button Kit to make it into a button. Easy-peasey! Check out some of the fancy buttons that other participants have posted on Flickr.
