Photo of the Week...Bottons

Looky here, I knew my Button Angel would make her debut one day! My youngest sister gave me this angel made of buttons and thread spools...I think maybe because I was the sister that always was sewing something. When my children were young, I made a lot of their clothes...just ask them how embarrassed they were...and usually wearing look-a-like outfits...what was I thinking?
I like sewing, but am not happy with my current sewing machine...newer versions are not always the best. I've even found myself hand stitching instead of using the machine. Anyhow, my little angel has her place on my shelf...maybe I should make one with all of my buttons...have a great Monday....Shelly
