"Buttons" is a counted cross-stitch chart with instructions translated in English. It is part of a series called "la Boîte à Couture" (the Sewing box).
What we like about this series:
- the vintage look of these sewing accessories;
- the way the colours are worked like a patchwork;
- all the designs use the same DMC colours so you can match them as you please;
- you can stitch them with or without the text.
