***Day 19- of @joannehawker #marchmeetthemaker Dream Collaboration ***

I’ve always wanted to illustrate childrens books or at least have a go at doing one.
I have no idea where to even start but I’ve been playing with an idea I’m not quite ready to show off yet that will potentially explore this avenue.

I’d also love to develop my floral brooches into some kind of wedding related button hole or hair piece so if anyone would like to take the plunge come at me ha

the buttonhole of a black knitted sweater. it is roughly darned with thick black thread and has orange thread peeking out. Green fabric is visible behind the sweater.

This was a bit harder than most buttonholes I’ve had to fix because the hole was so much bigger. I’m afraid it’s not very good looking.

The same sweater from a different angle. a green fabric is behind the sweater. It is now buttoned with a small black round button. The orange thread is less visible. A pale hand is holding the collar up so all the darning is visible.

I think it’ll look fine when I wear it.

thick black thread woven over a small patch of fabric on another section of the sweater.

Bonus: a small hole near the bottom of the sweater.

[ID: three close-up’s on a dark gray knit garment with black buttons. The first two pictures show a ripped buttonhole that’s been fixed. The third picture shows a hole that’s been mended with matching thread.]

Don’t worry, the button will cover the hole. :) I doubt people will notice. And even if they do: you fixed that buttonhole! How coolis that? It’s okay if it looks a little messy!

I think there’s some darningnext to the buttonhole? If so, I can barely tell on your photo so people in real life will probably not notice either.
