I've been stitching up some Crazy Quilt Heart Ornaments and decided, since my old mason jar of vintage Mother Of Pearl buttons is filled just about to the top, that I would use some:
Although I already had quite a few of these old buttons, I happened to find a ton more this past Summer in my flea market travels! So here is what I'm using them on:
I have one more heart to stitch up and then perhaps tomorrow, I'll get them put together.
In other news, I have something really fun and special coming this holiday season. Something you'll want to to tune in for every day! For now, it's a secret! More information coming soon!
Pedal to the floor!

oooooh....secrets!! Yay! Like you I love buttons...and really do have a hard time using them (esp. the MOP ones).
I love those old buttons; I have a lot of my Grand'mere's old ones...I hope to use them in my CQJP2014 this coming year....yours are so pretty...hugs, Julierose
Stunning colletion!
Oh yes! Don't those buttons make a difference! I've got a few in my button collection, but apart from one or two buttons on CQ blocks, I keep forgetting to use them. duh.
But I have some cute patterns from magazines that are button specific embellished, and I want to do at least one of them soon, because every time I look through my patterns file, they scream at me "Our turn now!!"
Lovely! I love working with buttons too!
I've not been able to comment on your blog for ages (and some others), don't know what the problem is/was but, not been able to upload photos either.....really annoying!
Especially as I have a new furry baby and wanted to show her off to all!
Take care,
hugs,
