Discover the history behind buttons, including the elegant glass Czech, perky china, calico, and iridescent pearl buttons. Learn how you can use these vintage buttons.
Once common, these fasteners can still be found and are popular with collectors, artisans, and crafters.
Catch Diane Helentjaris in action as she explores traditional and modern needlework, ranging from Civil War-era penny rugs and cotton quilts to today's slow stitching trend during the Artist-in-Residence series on Wednesdays, Jan. 22 through March 26 (except for March 5).
She will also be presenting two additional programs at Rust Library:
Create a Penny Rug Valentine on Monday, Feb. 10, 7 p.m.
Slow Stitching Workshop on Monday, March 24, 7 p.m.
