My son is going to a wedding in a borrowed tuxedo- that is missing a button. Dutifully, I hopped on the subway to the button area in the Garment District. This time I took all you button lovers with me in my heart! Buttons on cards, in boxes, in barrels, in bags.Lots of vintage beauties. You can't imagine. At the 2nd shop I showed my sample to the saleswoman. She assured me they had that button- among millions- and walked down a few aisles to pull out an identical match! I purchased some $6 a yard 54" backing fabric and then smiled all the way home. The next time you come to NY, I'll take you there!Dotty
