I've always marvelled at the workmanship of antique cloth buttons. I've been fortunate enough to have a few in my collection.....now I will have a few modern ones. Thank you so much for all your time and energy that you invest in this ancient craft of button making, it is truly appreciated.

Thank you so much for the very good video, being german I have to remark that arrow means Pfeil not Pfel, best wishes.

Thank you so much for the correction. I'll get it adjusted.

@@GinaBSilkworks you are the best :)

Thanks for the detailed video. Will definitely give this a try. Is it possible to do this on buttons with smaller diameter?

[@GinaBSilkworks]

If you use a smaller thread instead of the 3mm soutache, yes. Finer soutache is hard to get today (sometimes you can find it as vintage). I've made this using perle cotton and silks, so just have a play!
