Buttons....even quilty buttons

I love buttons. I have never ordered from this place, but in the interest of protecting my fellow quilters I am using myself as a guinea pig. .

There are all sorts ofbuttons, including four that are quilt blocks -- in pewter. And fibers.I love that stuff. I still fancy that some day I will go back tospinning. It was such a calming, serene kind of thing to do. Anyway, I'm ordering just a couple cheap buttons (most of cost will be postage) to see what happens. I will let you know.

Sunny - if you keep this up I will (ever so regretfully!) have to block your posts. That loud crash was me falling off the fabric diet wagon at the Fabric Depot sale, and now you post about a button site.

Help - someone restrain me. lol

you click on the button piccies you get enlargments and descriptions with some. They are all antique buttons and some are quite valuable. There are lots of US Button Societies if you Google 'Button Society', and unlike the British group they have a lot of competitions. Jenny comes over once a year for one of them (which is when I give her my shopping list for quilty things!)
