I love the buttons! How long did they take? Kudos for hand stitching them!

I snatched up all the skull buttons, they were too cute. Each one took me a couple of hours, and the second one went much more quickly than the first :)

Watch out! They're addicting.
Which reminds me, I'm gonna make some tomorrow!

Haha, I'm already wanting to make more. I'm thinking another stop at the fabric store is in order soon...

Those are so great- the fabric really grabs me!!!!

Thank you! I still get all happy when I see the cartoon skulls smiling at me.

I quite like how DIY they look xD and the skull button! Awwww.

Menstruation is totally punk rock! Hell yeeeeeah! Haha, thanks :)

I'm quite impressed with the hand sewing! Good job!

Thank you! I'm sure it'll get better with practice, but I'm glad it wasn't a total failure the first time around, haha.

They're gorgeous! I love the matching skull buttons, and your blanket stitching looks very nice.

Thanks, it's a little uneven but I'd never done blanket stitching before and I learned from a youtube video. I actually really enjoyed stitching that by hand though, it was pretty soothing.
