    Wonderfil button, no pun intended Gina; it looks like a log cabin quilt block. Welcome to Wonderfil, been using it over two decades. Rosemary

      I'm really enjoying the threads I must admit! It was lovely to "meet" you the other week!

    I really enjoyed that. What do you do about the back? Do you leave it as, and use the bulk in the middle as a sort of shank to attach the button? Also have you ever made rings out of the buttons?

      Thank you!
      Backs really depend on usage. If you are using your buttons for historical costume, for most periods they should be left "as is", you don't really start seeing different finishing until the 19th century, but even then some types never had additional backs. Just sew through the threads at the back.
      Today though, we tend to like something a little more finished - I've got a video with some ideas. You'll find it here ua-cam.com/video/Vi8_7DP0irU/v-deo.html
      Making into rings. Yes I have! I quite like the ring blanks that have a disc with holes for beading. There are also some to fit cabochons, and you can glue a button into these. You could even make a Yubinuki (I also have a video for this, and a button bangle based on it) and you could stitch a button on. Those are the easier methods, jewellers I'm sure would come up with great ideas!

      @@GinaBSilkworks Thank you too. Just read this so will check out video tomorrow. I like these buttons as little, portable works of art. Wishing we wore more formal clothes today. The more into vintage and historic clothing I get; the more unappealing it's becoming to see jeans, t shirts, and sneakers on everyone, all the time!

      I believe you can use these buttons on clothing if a waterproof mold is used. The threads can be hand washed in cold water - I have used both for embroidery and gently washed the finished work. You can also use a special safety pin to fasten the button to your garment and then you remove the button when cleaning the clothing. Do experiment and enjoy! Charlotte in California

      Made in this way - with a wooden mould, it is better used on a coat or other garment that won't be washed. Or, remove them prior to washing.
      However, you can use a plastic mould, and so long as your thread is washable, and all is well secured, you can use them on washable garments too

      Sorry but how do you attach them to the garment? Is there a backing to use?

    • @GinaBSilkworks
      @GinaBSilkworks  Рік тому

      Traditionally, thread wrapped buttons were simply attached by sewing through some of the threads at the back. Today, we tend to like a little bit of a neater finish, I've a video showing some different ideas here - ua-cam.com/video/Vi8_7DP0irU/v-deo.html

    It would be extremely more helpful to show HOW you are securing those threads on the backside, please

    • @GinaBSilkworks
      @GinaBSilkworks  Рік тому +1

      Thank you, I'll keep that in mind for the future. The stitches are just going under some of the threads that were already there, trying to keep in line, but not being particularly precise about placement.
