One of my favourite things when crafting and creating is spending an excessive amount of time sifting through one of my many vintage button boxes to find the exact button that will marry perfectly with whatever fabric I happen to be using at the time. And when I was making a few gadget/mobile phone/iPod cases I found myself whiling many a minute away selecting the perfectly perfect button.
Here are the combinations I came up with:
Love this big brown button!
A starry affair livened up with a splash of pink wool
Butterscotch button and tweed.
Must start to put these in my
folksy and
etsy shops too - that's after I've spent another inordinate amount of time thinking up names for them!

These look great - I think you made the right combinations with those buttons and fabric. I particularly like the Butterscotch button and tweed. What is the stitching you use on the edging? It looks great with the tweed - is that done with a sewing machine?
picking out the buttons is my favorite part too!! my mum recently brought me a huge load of buttons up and ive spent ages sifting through them!
The stitching used is done with my shiny new toy - my new overlocker. Which is fantastic!
These are Fandabbydoozie!I love the star one with a splash of pink, it looks fab! xXx
