Button button, who’s got the button?

Posted on July 5, 2011 by Trystan
Leonard Autie

Back to work — but not in the office. I luckily have today off as part of the July 4th holiday! So I’m sewing (tho’ it’s pretty dang hot, even in our insulated bungalow).

All 30+ buttons that I covered on the drive up to Oregon are now attached to Leonard’s coat. Still have to put the buttons on his breeches. But I needed a break (and a cold beer ;-). Also have to finish the bottom edge of the coat.

But making progress!
