My fourth Dorset button instruction book. It includes beaded, Fair Isle style, Singleton and fancy buttons and how to design your own!
Simply Dorset Buttons has 20 original button patterns. I've included fancy stitched buttons, beaded buttons, a colourwork technique I've been developing and Singleton buttons. There is also a comprehensive section on how to design your own buttons, including templates for drawing out your designs, thread choices and more. This book will push the boundaries of button making a little further and hopefully provide a new resource for button enthusiasts.
The inspiration behind this book was to get people making Dorset buttons all over the world. They were once world famous, worn by royalty. They should be so again. They are also fun, beautiful, practical, versatile and addictive. You have been warned!
