  How hot is that… wanna make me one? Or just talk me thru yours? I am petrified of button holes, so as yet have not made anything that involves them!

    GDAC, the trick with buttonholes is Practice and Testing! They are NOT as scary as you might think they are, trust ME!
    So sit yourself down with some scap fabric and first Practice making them. You need to see how your machine makes buttonholes, since every machine is a little different.
    Then when you’re comfy choose a design that has buttonholes, and simply Test making a buttonhole with a scrap of your design fabric before actually adding them to your piece.
    Let me know how it goes, I have a feeling before you know it you will be posting a bunch of creations with loads of buttons on them! :)
    Thanks again for the sweet comments on my design!

  I will have to take some pictures of the back, it has the same exposed shoulders as the front and a fitted but plain back. Thanks imvisible!
