I bought one only last year, after many years of sewing! I LOVE it!! Thank you for your information too!

I've use a seam ripper with a pin as a stopper. Never knew of this method. Thank you for sharing.

Laura, i love you but my grandmother taught me this in the 1960's. However this video is great because so many young sewers do not know the most basic skills (I also know to put a pin in the end of a buttonhole and open the fabric with a seam ripper). Thank-you for sharing.👍😀🧵

I'm always nervous when cutting open buttonholes. I just bought a buttonhole cutter set just like yours. Quick and easy and no mistake. Thanks for the tutorial.

Ty. I purchased one and was surprised there was no instructions

[@Plookiss]

Thanks so much, I brought one ages ago, now looking for a small hammer to use with it :D

Laura you are amazing. Never knew these tools . And didn’t know that thy are to do the cutting of button holes and the rounds. I just use to use the picker carefully. But it drags and I have to trim off the fabric frays. If I see these tools , I am going to get a pair and now I know how to use them. Simple thing we don’t know is that not amazing how we still learn after so many years . 🌹❤️🌹❤️

You are a great teacher and think of so many variables! Don't ask me about the time I used a seam ripper to open a hand made button hole on a reproduction historic costume with disastrous results - from then on I used a button hole chisel!! Thanks for the reminder and the trick with small button slots! Hugs, Deb Our Time To Quilt

I do not talk about my "going away suit" either :)

[@bonitasmile21]

This is so much help! I've gotten me a sewing book and it said about the button cutter. I was puzzled till your video. Awesome! ❤ May I ask, please? Is there a video of that cloth that was sown in circles and rectangles? I would love to learn. ❤

I've never heard of a button hold opener. My home economic teacher taught me to use a seam ripper and a pin in the late 60tys.

[@ssumner9757]

Wow! Always learn something new from you!😊

[@sandraengstrand2784]

Well, genius advice!! 😁🧵❤️

[@annblachly8068]

I bought a 1/4 inch wide chisel. Very sharp and long enough I can see the area to be cut. It can be resharpened and is sturdy. It is so sharp it had a protective cover on it. So I cover it again after use.

[@learntocrochet1]

That is a great idea!

[@MadebyaBEAutifulqueenBea]

Wait a minute... I gotta watch this... sewing project, you can JUST WAIT! LMFAO great video 💙🐝💙

[@pamelapetrovits5617]

I have used a seam ripper but I also have several pairs of buttonhole scissors

[@sminer8257]

Well that's new to me I just used a seam ripper

[@ritasheloff7707]

I like to add a tiny bit of fray check after cutting my button holes with this method just to be sure to stop any fraying :)

[@mondaholleger9728]

I just ran across a KZbin video by you from a while back... you were showing how to fold fabric and stack it... it was a really great way to do it simply and have nice even stacks... you might consider sharing again????

[@ritasheloff7707]

Can you add the link to the video here?

[@ritasheloff7707]

Never mind - I found it here :) Laura - you look ADORABLE with your much shorted hair and I LOVE your Button plates hanging on the wall behind you!! Where'd you get those? I want some for my sewing room ❤ kzbin.info/www/bejne/q4WpgGhmjZ2sh8k

How big in mm of a hole does the eyelet piece make? Thank you.

[@GrampiesCorner]

Hi Laura, I know this is off topic, but do you know of any Canadian far quarter monthly subscriptions?

[@SewVeryEasy]

[@AustinOmoria]

[@KnitAdjacent-ln2rx]

Hey, Laura, I just recently found out that you and I have a cousin in common through marriage. Does Elizabeth ring a bell? Her son was verifying how many subscribers you have! 💕💕💕

[@SewVeryEasy]
