How To Sew A Button On The Right Way

May 13, 2016 by Shellie Wilson Leave a Comment

How to sew on a button_Motte's Blog (1)

I grew up with a crafty Mother and a crafty Grandmother, so being able to sew on a button was something I just learnt. I don’t recall any one sitting me down to show me, I will assume I learnt by staring over someones shoulders.  Some (non crafty) people don’t think they need to know how to sew the basics. But it’s not until you have children and they start School that you realize every now and then there is a uniform mishap. Now if we all kept sending the uniform away for a new hem, stitched seam or a new button we would go broke. Maybe it’s time to try doing it yourself?

So here is a great tutorial that shows you how to sew on a button (the right way) so that you can save a whole heap of money to spend on other school stuff!
