I love buttons. I would go so far as to say I have a bit of a button addiction. But I have a hard time growing my stash of buttons. I occationally steal my moms buttons for projects. She's got enough to share. I sometimes go on Etsy and look at all the buttons, and then chicken out on buying them. I think about looking at antique shops, and there is one locally that has a booth that carries them, but their expensive.
I want to be better about going to garage sales and finding them. I'm terrible about that. I'm not a garage-saler. And when I do go, I never find anything cool like antique sewing supplies, vintage sheets, buttons... I should start swaping my crafting for huge amounts of vintage buttons. This button currently resides on a jacket I got at Old Navy last year. Just this lone button on the top of the jacket...perfect for a pregnant belly. I still wear it. It's not a pregnancy jacket, just worked well as one. When i'm tired of the jacket, i'll steal the button from it!
Our chinese painted button quail. They live in our greenshouse, eating ants and some seeds we give them. They are a little bit shy, but will eat from your hand as seen.
Are you ready for v. 2.0?

I have had this old coat since I was 17....I think it was originally army surplus from some Eastern block country
I always wanted to make one of these shirts, with button facing and those sleeve button up things ; ). Here it comes, in a gorgeous light grey!

Dear friends,
November has just begun and I’m showing you today some of my latest fashion designs : ). This time, it’s all about the guys! Needless to say that they were super happy to finally get some attention and do the modelling for the new fashions.
So, I figured that what would be needed most are basics like jeans and shirts. As always, I was aiming for a high mix and match rate ; ). The collection is already online in my etsy shop, I’d be happy to welcome you there as a visitor <3.
Thank you all so much for your constant support! Have a great weekend!

Yay!
I was lucky lucky to win this on Trademe (our national online auction site). She's so little and cute, and runs like a dream... and folds up all nice and tidy so she looks great on my desk - I don't have to pack her away in the cupboard when I'm not sewing.
She also doesn't mind sewing nice and slowly, - great for sewing itty bitty tiny little dolly clothes!
She's an Elna Lotus Sp - about 40 years old.
