- button (I used vintage buttons)
- small yoyo (use what ever you want for the template)
- needle
- embroidery thread to sew and use as hanger
- scissors
- sewing thread
- Make yoyo.
- Tie knot in embroidery thread; pass through center of yoyo and back again.
- Thread button and stitch on; go through yoyo and button two or three times. Finish with needle on back of work.
- Insert needle into yoyo; come out edge of yoyo.
- Make loop for hanger; tie off.
- Take needle back into yoyo and cut off.
Because I don't like to post on Sunday, I will post another ornament late tonight for everyone.
DO NOT USE ANY OF THESE PATTERNS TO MAKE THINGS TO SELL FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY!!!!
Nice and simple, but very effective at showcasing a special or vintage button. I love that one that looks like it's stacked...
