For Macro Mondays theme "Button" It's an abstract on the word button as in the 'button nose' of a tiny teddy bear.
this was an attempt to make a quilt like this one: flickr.com/photos/eggmoney/400373863/ , mine doesn't look like hers which really worried me at first, the buttons were an afterthought in place of quilting stitching and I love them, in the end I'm happy with it
you want button eyes??? seriously ? I'm all for the wicked goth look but.....
Ok. and the camera sealed it ... right after I took this frame my camera died soooo... til tommorrow.........
Today will be one of my rare no-neckwear days. I have not worn this in awhile, but once every few weeks or so I do like to try the buttoned up look. I work in the morning and plan to meet with a friend for a late lunch. With the cold weather and early darkness of the season I do not have any other plans so I will probably have a relaxing evening at home. I like the contrasting white collar on this black shirt. I have an all-black shirt on order and look forward to some outfit combinations with it soon.
Designed by James Biber, "Big Button" first made its appearance in 1996. Previously a black button, it has been redesigned in taxi-cab yellow, complete with stainless steel thread. (The button itself is made of aluminum.) It can be seen on 39th Street and Fashion Avenue (Seventh Avenue) in the Garment District, in Midtown Manhattan.
old stuff...
my grandmother had jar after jar of buttons ...nothing left the house without her taking the buttons to save...I love going through her wonderful collection ..wondering the story behind each one !
I love Halloween, It's informal, a little counter culture & (IMHO) at it's best whaen it has a homemade & folk holiday approach.

Rob gave me an idea for the connections challenge yesterday but I was unable to get it due to lack of time. This is one of the pics I got yesterday while taking my first 52 week project photo.
I didn't think of the idea until I saw Shannon's photo. Thank you lots Shan :)
Taken for Nov 8th ODC: Connections
I attached these buttons to a jumper I wore to hand out candy last Halloween. Just uploading it here for a friend who'd like to use the idea.
Tips for Pam: place the large buttons first and use the teeny buttons for the teeth and bridge of the nose! Click the "ALL SIZES" link just above the photo to see bigger versions to print.
One of the buttons/pins I made while I was staying with Erin and Moira. Not a real club that I am in though :(
I trawled some charity shops and really scored big time with some fab items (pics to follow) however these are my favourite finds of the day - soooo many cute buttons!!! Rabbits Toadstools Ducks Flowers - Why would you not want these!!
You don't get to see many pictures of me where I've buttoned up my cardigan, so here's a picture of me where I've buttoned up my cardigan.

A hectic day, been at Hampton Court Flower show & was far to laid down with picnic, baby, and baby paraphenalia, not to mention the plants we bought, to bother with the camera.
So we have a button shot for the scavenger hunt. It looks a lot more peaceful than the reality here
A series of Thanksgiving Pies.
We had some great looking pies & I had so me time, so I got some gear & took some pics.
Now the pies are gone, but the photos remain.

Carson slapped the release buckle and the harness fell away from his suit. He raised his arms above his head and leaned back in the seat.
"Ahhh, another perfect landing, if I do say so myself," he smirked.
Jessica rolled her eyes. "Gimme a break, Carse. You burned up half the fuel just trying to fix your trajectory six miles out!"
Carson wasn't fazed. "Yep, the next ace pilot of the agency has just touched down on Mars. You can't stop this guy. Graduation here we come!" He pushed the comms activation button. "Hey yo Stack, what's cookin' up there on station, buddy?"
"Carson, stop it!" came the whiny voice back from the speaker unit. "You're gonna get us in trouble!"
"Oh, stop complaining Stack," returned Carson casually. "Hey, we just touched down by the way. Time to plant this flag and graduate!"
"That's now how you're supposed to call it in," mumbled Stack. "And stop calling me Stack!"
"Yeah, whatever Stack," said Carson, turning off the comms unit."
"Why are you such a jerk to him?" said Jess as she clambered out of her seat.
"Oh, you know don't mean any of it," said Carson. "Well, except the whiny part. Stack is super whiny."
Jess couldn't hold back a grin. "Yeah, and Stack might be the best nickname you've ever come up with."
"Yeah, I'm pretty proud of that one. You ready?"
"Hell yeah, let's do this!" exclaimed Jess.
With that, she pulled the two large levers to the left of the airlock gate, opening the inner door of the chamber. The two stepped inside and the opening sealed behind them, the air flushing from the area in mere seconds. The outer door hooks released and the hatch swung up and outward.
Carson and Jess looked out across the Martian landscape for a long moment, taking in the desolate red landscape around them. They grinned at each other and high-fived.
"Hey, this is it!" said Carson. "Ladies first!"
"You're such a gentleman," said Jessica sarcastically. "You just want me to test the ground stability."
Carson looked at her with mock horror. "Me? Never!" he said. "Now get down that ladder before I have to throw you off this lander!"
Jess shook her head and bounded down the steps of the lander. Carson pulled the flag from the airlock chamber and tossed it down to his partner on the surface. She caught it deftly and sunk it firmly into the Martian surface.
Carson took the last two steps and landed on the ground next to Jess. "Well, I guess that's it then," he said. "Congratulations, graduate!"
"Yeah, congrats you crazy pilot," replied Jess. "I'm just lucky to have survived your shenanigans all this time."
Carson shrugged. "Yeah, maybe."
