I've added some new wooden buttons to my collection so I had to try them out. I used one of my own designs (available on Yoriko's site). I enlarged the design file and deleted the little flowers. I was going to stitch some parts of the design twice so they would stand out on this canvas fabric, but instead I used Noah's idea of running two reels of thread together.

The bag is lined with a printed cotton with lots of spring flowers.
The second picture is the original design.
