Kit for Dorset Tree Button
Kit for Dorset Tree Button
This is the kit associated with the Dorset Tree Button workshop.
Instructor: Anna McDowell
Course Description: Tree buttons are not a traditional Dorset Buttons but a contemporary version of this heritage craft. I always try to use the traditional stitches when making any of my contemporary buttons so I will be using all four stages (Casting, Slicking, Laying and Rounding) to make these buttons, concentrating on how to place spokes.
Skill Level: Continuing Beginner, Intermediate
Prerequisite: Experience with a traditional Dorset Cartwheel button. Students are asked to prepare their ring by Casting (blanket stitching) around it before class.
