    Looks great Mad. Did you sew the buttons on by machine or hand? Hand I would guess from your comment about mending. Wow, that's alot.

    I really like that. I used buttons when I made a crazy quilt, but this is a good idea.

    Wow this is beautiful, love the colours and the applique, great idea with the buttons, I think sewing them all on would have driven me crazy tho! The design is bold, I like that!
