\"buttons\"<\/p>\n

We had an afternoon of buttons at doll club yesterday. I learned so much! One thing I learned was about old celluloid button and how they deteriorate and damage other buttons in their vicinity. I saw examples of what a deteriorating button looks like. I came home and went through all my buttons again. I have now separated out the bad buttons and will decide if I can bring myself to just throw them away. An afternoon of button talk couldn’t have come at a better time for me- since I’d just organized all of mine.<\/p>\n

Thanks for all the advise about having my quilt done- I stopped at a local quilt shop yesterday and got the names of several people to call. I’m excited about it!<\/p>\n

I actually spent a little time on a doll today. I want to finish my December, before changing to Christmas present mode, dolls. There are a few cut out and even 3 that are stuffed and ready to finish. It would be so easy to leave them and get started on something new but then they haunt me. I know I will feel better if I finish them up.<\/p>\n

*Update<\/em>* photos of those BAD buttons<\/em>–<\/p>\n

I hope this is clear enough. I will also post<\/a> them<\/a> to flickr, where you can look at them very big. Do you see all the little cracks? They get bigger and bigger and then the buttons crumble.<\/p>\n

Funny thing is, I was looking for this kind of green corrosion when I was making this robot<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I understand that both of these types of deterioration are “contagious” and affected buttons should be removed from the rest of your collection.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
