Can’t believe it was that easy to sew the buttons back on! My puppy ate them off, and I thought I’d have to throw the matching pillow out. But no, You Tube and wonderful people like you who take the time to share such talent, techniques, and knowledge are just amazing. Thank you!
What great technique for sewing buttons on pillows. I would have never figured this out on my own. Thanks Laura. Even us experienced sewers can always learn something new.
Laura I want to thank you for teaching me so much! I'm a beginner at Sewing and I love how u explain everything from beginning to end! I'd be so lost if it wasn't for you! Your my favorite so never stop teaching me! Jill in MN
Thank you for this. I was able to repair a divot in a pillow from a couch that i purchased that came out. I just didn’t add the button (cuz it didn’t come with one) and this worked perfectly. Bless!!
Thank you for helping me finally fix my pillow and get these loose buttons off the counter. Initially I thought this would be intimidating. I think that was just my procrastination talking. :)
Great job showing how to do simple buttons on both sides of a pillow. I'm off to see how upholstery cushions are done professionally. It's similar of course but they use a special cord which I have but I'm now thinking I might prefer a heavy duty nylon thread which I have large spools of I use for mouse whiskers on my catnip mice. Anyway that's what I was searching for when your cute 7 year now video popped up. (I've got 14 buttons to put on RV cushions I just reupholstered and the fabric is a marine canvas that's coated. This fabric is not friendly to needles or pins and it's going to be a challenge. I may need to punch holes through the fabric or maybe a hot poker to melt one. No matter what I actually do I have to be careful not to ruin my cushions. Out of 20 yards I have only about a yard left. No room for errors. Thanks for your shares so well done.
You showed an orange pillow which looked like it had one button. This is what I was wanting to learn. How do you sew a button on one side of the pillow??
I use upholstery thread and a long upholstery needle for such projects. The thread is super strong and the needle is really long. Hopes this gives you another option for adding buttons to things and thanks for a great tutorial. Always love all your tutorials.
Big thank you Laura, this is an very straight to the point tutorial. I like your energy too! I can now apply this to my next bit of arty farty craft stuff :) love & blessings to you
Great, thank you! I find a better way to trim the threads at the end is to thread them all onto the needle, go into the cushion coming out as far from the button as possible, give them a little tug then cut flush with the fabric. This way the ends of the thread will be really long so no chance of the knot coming undone, plus the ends are completely hidden within the cushion (or whatever other project).
stay away from the dollar type store thread and get a all purpose thread for your local sewing shop. Look for a sale and get grey, black, white and beige. to start with.

Wow thanks Jill. I'm happy you join along:)
This is an ingenious method and helped me immensely with my sprocket pillows! Thank you, Laura!!
Wow! thank you. That is such a problem solver for me!!! Whatever would I do without clever people like you on you tube!!
I used embroidery thread in a complementary color to the button and the fabric, and it worked out well.
Thanks Laura - I was so worried about repairing my cushion, but you made it simple and it now looks great!
I always check the publish date lol. This is the gift that keeps on giving! Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!
Love the way you found the centre of the cushion. Brilliant!
thanks!

I have a question so can I do this too but with four buttons on the pillow like the one I saw?
Can't believe what I was doing to do this. You make it look so much easier. Thank you!

What's your recommendation for cleaning button pillows?
I put them in a pillow case and pin the case tight, them I wash it
Wow that was helpful Laura, easy to follow video. thank you
Hola. Me gusta su tutorial. Espero poder escuchar en español, más allá de los subtitulos. Gracias
Great tutorial!
Great, thank you!

Thank you for this video!
Can this technique work if I have a much larger couch cushion?
yes, but be sure to add and small button under for strength
Thank you for helping me fix my moms pillow
Hangon. When u put the needle through the second button , what do u do with thread? Go through the material??? 😫
yes just go through all the layers and the button
What a wonderful tutorial, thank you.
How would you attach just one button?
If you mean just one on one side, I would not recommend it as it is not as strong that way.
Thanks for the tip! Pretty blouse you have on too!
thanks and thanks!
very helpful thanks!
Extremely helpful tutorial as usual.
Glad you liked it:)
Thank you so much for this video! I can now do my own pillows👍👏

what is the best tread that u can use for a sewing machine. for beginner.
stay away from the dollar type store thread and get a all purpose thread for your local sewing shop. Look for a sale and get grey, black, white and beige. to start with.
