I'd love to see some of the Turkish and Persian button techniques! Out of the buttons that you have made, which have you found the easiest to button and unbutton?
Actually, all of them are awesome, and none are least easy. The "texture" of the woven threads around the button make grasping and holding easy, they do not slip as much. I actually just made a garment last night that I used cast metal buttons that have the typical dome top and chank- i find those are VERY difficult to manage compared to the woven buttons- and harder on my hands. I am kind of tossing around putting woven buttons on this new garment! LOL :)
The button making is fascinating.
