I've made Dorset buttons, but love this version with a scalloped edge! Thanks for sharing. 😊

THIS WAS PHENOMENAL! Your lighting was good, the camera was close enough, and I could follow you as if I was seated right next to you! Also, you went off camera for the repetitive stitches once you showed us how to do it! Thank you so much for this tutorial!

Hi Heidi, all the way from a small seaside town in DORSET. 🏖 😊<br>I've never heard of these so I googled at this is what I found, that I thought I'd share.<br><br>A Dorset button is a style of craft-made button originating in the English county of Dorset. Their manufacture was at a peak between 1622 and 1850, after which they were overtaken by machine-made buttons from factories in the developing industries of Birmingham and other growing cities.<br><br>Stay Safe 🧵😊 Lynn x

They are Dorset buttons from Dorset England, it was a huge cottage industry.

This stitch you are using around the ring is called a “blanket“ stitch used for edging blankets. Very beautiful buttons. I am going to make some.

Hi I recently started watching you and enjoy your channel very much. You probably know this but the “ thread” your using is embroidery floss. And the stitch is a blanket stitch.

Yes, Dorset buttons come from the county of Dorset in the South West here in England. It's a beautiful coastal county east of the counties Devon and Cornwall - I've visited several times because my husband was born near Bournemouth and still has family there. I remember buying a little Dorset button making kit from a little shop in the town of Dorchester when visiting many years ago.
