Burda Style For people who sew
 "Pin It")
Description
Those tights are definitely the most time consuming ones I ever made. I made some with buttons before but I never used so many of them (about 200!).. Took me about 8 hours to sew them on (I had to do that while wearing them to see if it looks good..). After all I really love how they came out =)

Oh toll! Sieht aber tatsächlich auch nach einer Menge Arbeit aus. Wo hast du denn die schicken Knöpfe her?

Die Knöpfe habe ich bei Etsy gekauft für $35, meiner Meinung nach immer noch billiger als hier bei uns.. leider
