Came across some embroidered button and decided to handmade my own design.Making button pins are easy, the difficult part is to decide on the theme. After much thoughts, I settle with the Animal and the Breakfast theme as I wanted to make fridge magnets. Below are the steps I have done to make the button pins.
1. Started drawing some circles on a piece of paper. Draw the picture within the circle. You may like to color them so that you have better visibility if how it will looks like.
Tip: You may use a coin or anything round to trace the shape onto the paper.
2. Trace and cut the picture onto the felts. For the circular base, you would require two pieces.
Tips: It will be easier to stick double side tape on the paper and past it onto the felt before cutting out the shape.
3. Sew the pieces onto the top circular felt.
This is some of the buttons that I have completed. My favorite are the three little chicks which draw in heart shape and embroidered the different facial expressions.
