Book Of Buttons

Rating:
Summary: thoroughly enjoyable with great detailed pictures
Review: The information is general in nature, with some history but I loved seeing how different buttons enhanced the same fabrics. The detail is very sharp with vivid color.

Summary: Fascinating introduction to Buttons
Review: This book was a wonderful introduction to the history of buttons and the variety and beauty of a generally overlooked accessory.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and have used it as a resource on many occasions, as an amateur collector and when sewing. I was fortunate enough to meet the author, at her stall at Covent Garden in London, as an Australian tourist, and found her as delightful and interesting as her book.
