My sister generously let me use her vintage buttons to embellish this small wall quilt. A few buttons, like the blue one, are painted metal.
This quilt began after I learned the basics of thermofax screen printing from
Maggie Weiss. If you ever get a chance to take a class with Maggie, go for it. She's a fabulous teacher and lovely person. The fabric featured in the circle is my button design, printed on commercial marble batik.
Check out the
National Button Society link where you can learn about classification of buttons for competition! Yes, like quilt competition, there is button competition!
