Zwirnknopf Buttons
3-Hour Workshop
12 pm - 3 pm EST, Wednesday, January 20
Zwirnknopf Buttons, also known as shirt lace buttons, are a more modern innovation than the traditional Dorset button, dating back to the Edwardian era at the beginning of the twentieth century. Start with the six-pointed Star button, progress to the Austrian Shirtlace, and finish with the slightly trickier but most popular Lace Shirtwaist. Finish our time together as a fully trained buttoner!
All Levels
The class pattern (single page, color) is included in the class fee and will be digitally sent by QuiltFest. Please print before class.

To make 5 buttons:
5, 1-1/2" plastic rings
3 weight perle cotton or sock weight yarn (minimum 20yds)
size 16 darning needle
blended beeswax (eg Sewfine Thread gloss)
