Tutorial and template to make Yorkshire button - botanical prompt

Sharing a tutorial on how to make a multi-ridged and detailed Yorkshire button.
I’ll post the template in our stitchalong Facebook group here: www.facebook.c...
Have fun making your own! Great to add to slow stitching projects.
I’ll be using mine as flowers for the botanic prompt for Roxy’s journal of Stitchery - Treasure Hunt.
Cheers,
Christine

Thanks Pam! 🤗

Thank you so much for a brilliant tutorial Christine, I'd just been wondering if I could make my own jig to make those - and now I can! :)

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

Love when we can DIY 🤗

Oh so creative as always, Christine. I bet that you could pick up a stick in the garden and come up with something beautiful with it! I’ll give this a go since I’m fascinated with Yorkshire button. Great instructions and way to ♻️ upcycle an innocent looking plastic🥰. Thank you.

Thanks Tess - having a giggle at the stitch comment. I do love driftwood 😂Have fun with these - they are a little bit addictive once you start trying different fibres. Cheers, Christine

I have never seen these, but absolutely love them. I am going to try to make them!! 💐💐Marnel

Thanks so much Marnel - really happy to have inspired you to try these- they make wonderful slow stitching embellishments but could also work as part of the beautiful journals you make. Cheers, Christine

They are so cool I’m sure I used to make these with my nanna 25 years ago or more and I had a metal wheel looking thing I must see if I can find it now that I’ve started stitching again. Love your Chanel X

How would you sew this button onto a knitted sweater? The back is not closed.

[@createandcraftwithchristine]

You could add a piece of wool felt to get back and stitch it on that way. Or shape it over a shank button of the right size. Cheers, Christine
