It's still drying, the cotton is thick (DK) and made thicker still by the
doubled gold thread. I spun it but the final airing is taking ages. It's too
warm to light a fire to help the drying and I don't want to risk spoiling
the shape by hanging it on the line.

I can't wait to show everyone :-)

Bought the buttons today.

How is that even with my own sixty years of buttons, my mother's ninety
years and Spouse's mother's eighty years, I never had the right number, size
or colour of buttons in all the jars in my drawer???
