I don't use buttons on my cards (inept in doing so...), but when I visit my mom, the jar inevitably comes out, because I often need one sewn on something (needles, thread and I do not work well together, unless cross-stitching is involved). Your YOU card: only fantastically wonderful!<br />Hugs~ccmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03929147498832463255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4580425545740317338.post-79836708260830836182015-10-19T10:34:48.685-04:002015-10-19T10:34:48.685-04:00When my grandma passed away, I inherited her tin o...When my grandma passed away, I inherited her tin of old buttons...

I'll never be as good as her, but I'm so glad she taught me how to sew, and cook, and all the other stuff that seems to be kinda trendy right now but was the only option for us growing up LOL my kids would have fits if I sewed them all matching outfits!

I sew, but not as much as your Mother, and also have a crush for buttons, especially if they are old.

When my girls were little, I made them lots of cute little dresses and Halloween outfits and, when I became a grandma, I knitted or crochet a blanket to each of my 5 grandchildren, they still have them and that is just precious for me.<br />Thank you for sharing the sweet story about how your mom sew for you and your sisters.<br />I have a question.....Is that a real needle or is it a die? it looks amazing with the thread looped around like that and through the buttons!!!!!Maria Rodriguezhttp://www.swimbikerunandstamp.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4580425545740317338.post-72047006320807666382015-10-16T03:28:25.715-04:002015-10-16T03:28:25.715-04:00What a brilliant take on the sketch, Michele!!! A...What a brilliant take on the sketch, Michele!!! And I so enjoyed your story of your MUM sewing for 6 daughters - WOW - I love to sew, too, and when the boys were still young, I used to do a lot of sewing for them - the sweetest little sets of shorts and matching shirts and I've sewn all their PJ's and tracksuits!!! Lately I've sewn lovely sweaters for them, but with the cost of fabric these days, it's cheaper to buy stuff at the shops (and it's much easier!!!) And my mum also used to have button tins - we loved to play with it!!! <br />Your card is so lovely - love the thread and how you've stapled the bottom buttons - very creative and so cute!!!<br />Have a wonderful Friday!!!<br />Hugz Petra Swarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00163449202125032021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4580425545740317338.post-41597448397386391112015-10-16T00:05:35.423-04:002015-10-16T00:05:35.423-04:00LOVE this!
