Embellishment Series: 1- Fabric Covered Buttons

I am happy to bring you a tutorial series on embellishments. I LOVE making embellishments!!!! The first one I am sharing with you is a fabric covered button. These are so cute and easy to make!! 

I decided to make my own printed fabric for these buttons. I used Archival ink in black and my favorite script stamp to stamp on to a piece of muslin. Look how pretty!

I like to use chipboard circles for my button base. Then I cut whatever fabric I am using in a bigger circle like so:

Now I sew a running stitch around the fabric

before I pull the thread to gather it, I insert the chipboard circle with a little batting into the fabric

Now, pull and gather around the stuffing and circle

I like to finish off the back side with a felt circle. And there you have it! So cute, and so simple! Please let me know if you give them a try!!
