I do hate to rain on your parade, but as a mother, I would
strongly suggest this be a wall hanging, or else remove the
buttons and embroidery some animal eyes in place of the buttons. Or ARE they already embroideried on and made to
look like buttons?

Hi Ramona - I just laid the buttons on for the pics, I plan to embroider the details for the reason you mention. :wink:

It's a square of fabric folded twice and sewn into the seam. So I guess it's a prairie point! :D

I haven't done anymore because I went to England for the weekend but I'll soon have my nose back to the grindstone! Don't worry, I'll share pics as I go!

And thanks everyone for your kind comments, everyone should try this, anyone can do it if I can and it's really fun! :D
