This morning W and I got up and walked into the city to go to the monthly farmers market. We came back with bread, and cheese, and patti pans, and tomatoes, and sausages and scones and cream, and chilli-apple pickle and buttons!
Lots and lots of buttons! Seriously, my previous collection fit in one small jam jar and now has been added to these four pots of loveliness. 🙂
I think I may have to cave and by this book now.

I’ve got really behind on my posting here and have stacked of things to say and photos to post, so i’m going to try and do a week of posting every day. Let’s see how that goes, shall we?
oh, I hope there will be more photos of the lovely dress you made 🙂
Oooh – I love those! I was thinking I needed to get my hands on some cheap buttons, my friends’ art thing on wednesday had lovely button jewellery I nearly bought and I’m going to do some button flower pots like in that book I saw! I thought ebay, but who would have known the farmer’s market would deliver.
My mum bought a nice bracelet made out of old ties set in acryclic with buttons sewn on it from this lady (www.tamsinhowells.co.uk)
