Learn to make beautiful, artistic thread buttons in the Dorset style, as flat buttons were originally made. These can be used on clothing or as embellishment on your art projects. Experience doing the basic stitches involved in the thread button-making process, and then have time to make a contemporary variation in style and color. There are elements of weaving and embroidery involved in the process. While working at your own pace, you will make a basic cartwheel button and a second button using additional stitches, multiple colors for stripes, and textured yarn for variation. All supplies are included. Never heard of Dorset Buttons? Check them out on the internet or stop into Lifelong Learning and Rose Carroll can show you samples of what will be taught.
