some people like to buy shoes - I like to buy equipment. My new favourite machine - a button maker. Students are welcome to use it for their printing projects.

    hi there,
    looks like a lovely new machine!
    any chance you could share the source?
    i've been looking for a sturdy button maker -- but all i can find are plastic toy versions...

    I got it from Global Aware - Tecre brand - truly a solid machine and reasonably priced - located here in Toronto, but they sell online

    Isn't it wonderful not to have your creative ideas held back by the lack of the right tools? Sweet buttons : )

    Do you have a rotary cutter or a circle cutter for the fabric ? ( or scissors ! )

    Thanks .... Jane

    Hi Jane,
    I use scissors - he does have a special rotary cutter for fabric, but I found it too fussy - some the thinner fabrics need interfacing.
