Button 8

Button 8 is called Half Cutwork which is self explanitory really.
I love the textural look of this one and the small peek of the patterned fabric in the cut out section.
The stitches I used are Running stitch-Buttonhole stitch-Lazy Daisy stitch and French Knots again on Cream Duchess Satin and using cream Perle 12 thread.
The button size is 38mm.



Tomorrow we learn something new-I can't wait to find out what it is.

The buttons get better every time. I love the tiny scrap of colour peeping out on this one. You must be the Queen of Buttons Doreen - they are all so beautifully worked.

Your buttons just keep getting better and better. All I can say is you must have a lot of patience to do such detailed work on such a small surface.
