You inspired me to also blog the pictures of the quilt... Wow what I lot of work... if you look at it... I am a new quilter... and will get better. What is the trick in grouping your buttons... you make it look so easy!jackihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00071284121172986401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7016674207999094300.post-9506231930820928802012-01-02T14:36:29.277-08:002012-01-02T14:36:29.277-08:00I love it!

And your quilt turned out really well. <br />I have some fabric coming from Modern Fabric Studio (I have a hard time finding good fabric in CO), that looks a little like the illustrations from Rosie's Walk. It's darling and about to become a twin quilt for my little boy's new bed. Anyway, I think I'm going to do buttons instead of quilting it - I think he'd love that. Can you tell me what kind of thread you used to sew them on?<br />I plan on incorporating a few other 'crazy' ideas to the quilt as well as inspired by you, so many thanks! (And sorry I've been absent. I had my second and wow - my sewing machine retired for a bit. :)Raspberryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17951500465174845096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7016674207999094300.post-57757493455380348182012-01-01T17:14:38.444-08:002012-01-01T17:14:38.444-08:00Hi allie,

Probably 5/8" on each side. Something like the Chanel jackets braid.<br /><br />Just a thought.<br /><br />Happy New Year and hugs<br /><br />FredaBFredaBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08000510495713705938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7016674207999094300.post-28762304771804670852011-12-31T08:48:43.908-08:002011-12-31T08:48:43.908-08:00I love what you are creating with the buttons, I h...I love what you are creating with the buttons, I have a piece that has to be done and put in the gallery on Monday,,and was planning to put some buttons on it, not as many as you have,, maybe 6... and some beads...<br />Thank you for popping into my blog. <br />Was at our local quilt store/ Bear Paw, and looked down to see your wonderful deck of playing cards..
