Sherry's post on her MOP buttons reminded brain cell number 3 that a friend down the road had kindly given me a few to 'play' with ages ago so I dug them out!!! Here's the one I did for her.
So simple to do but I think it's quite pretty too. I wanted it to sort of 'cup' the button but not hide it in any way. This is the result with no 'ugly' threads covering it either. Note the blue beads which lie just on the edge although not attached in any way.

What a lovly idea! I have a few very nice and old buttons from the frock my mother used when she was expecting me and I always treasured them and now you gave me the best idea ever what to do with them. Thank you!
Yes but there's plenty on the front too!!!!! I just didn't want to hide the pretty button!!!
This is really awesome! The MOP buttons are definately on my "to-do" list and you have given me something to chew on. Thanks!
