With little time I have tonight, this is what I could do.. :) my first fabric button.. :) It is from linen scrap I bought from MyBotang. The button is not in perfect round, because the fabric was not big enough to be pulled to the centre properly. I didn't use a kit.
Here is a link to a tutorial which use a cover button without a kit:

This one doesn't even need a cover button, just use something round:

Thanks to the link owners for sharing the tutorial.
Where to get cover buttons, please see my previous post:

wahh so creative.. agaknya kalau guna untuk baju, n masuk washing machine ok tak eks? if for crafty things yg tak dibasuh I think should be ok.

Hi Mila,
ReplyDeleteI think there are different qualities. Mine look like they are only good for crafty stuff. I sewing notions shop in my area make fabric button for customer, price ok about 20-40cents one, I think that one should be ok for baju.
I just figured this morning that I should glue the pieces together so that the button will be strong.. :)
Hi Mayya,
Thanks. :)
Must try... :) so easy to make.. but yet very satisfying..
it is useful when there is a small piece of very nice fabric.. it is also a good therapy when one is feeling down with their craft work not turning out well, make this and feel good about it.. :)
