Beautiful buttons!

I have to thank my sister-in-law Rachel from Dreaming of the Country http://vicarswifeintraining.blogspot.co.uk/  for the inspiration for this present for my neice's 11th birthday present.


I have always written Ambers name with a large lower case 'a' rather than a capital 'A' so I wanted to use this for her cushion - 5 weeks of sewing on buttons later a skinny capital 'A' may have been a better plan!!!!

Hindsight is a great thing!

The buttons were a mix called 'wake me up before you go go' from Felted Fancies Supplies, a facebook shop that supplies beautiful ribbons, buttons and felt.

If you are inspired Rachel has step by instructions on her blog

Now just to wrap it and send it to her - Just hoping she likes it!!!!
