Buttons 81, 80: Dorset Knob + High Top

Somehow, I feel like I've got the technique, but need more practice.

And need a cone shape for the knob - -

The knob have rounded tops.

I made a round shape with cotton, fiberfil

Embellished with Flora 20, Col. 201.

The high top should be cone shape.

So - I sort of made a longish shape w/cotton fabric, filled with small pebble and fiberfil.

Embellished with DMC Cordonnet Special 40, Ecru.

Button 84: Singleton

1 1/4" metal ring, covered with cotton fabric (small bit of fiber fil).

Londonderry #5095 Ivory 50/3 Linen thread.

[thank you Beth for the spool of linen thread]

I read the Singleton buttons were embroidered

using simple stitches.

Hoping Spring is around the corner,

couldn't resist a basic flower and french knots.
