How a buttonhole is made.
2.5 weeks post op, buttonhole
Plant of the Day
Wednesday 14 February 2024
Even after the storms and snow of winter this Asplenium scolopendrium (hart's tongue fern, burnt weed, buttonhole) growing in the shelter of a wall still provides a great display. There is a rosette of arching, evergreen, strap-shaped fronds. The margins are frequently undulated with the spores in conspicuous transverse stripes beneath the fronds.

Buttonhole progress. Today I got to 20/24 total buttonholes for the button sleeves shirt.
I have three more on the shoulder closure and one small for the under collar in the front.
I also ordered black silk buttonhole thread for the next project and picked up some grey wool... More to come.
I do have plans for more shirts and plans for alterations to this base pattern, but I am hoping to get a change of pace and work on the patchwork blazer first.
I'll post pics of the final button sleeves of course.
And one of the most recent buttonholes from today. I definitely feel like I'm improving!
HAND SEWN Hand buttonholes are a classic hallmark of a bespoke suit. Each stitch must be placed just so, even and consistent the whole way through, to achieve a good look. When done well, they are not only beautiful but strong and functional. . . . #bespoke #bespoketailor #bespokesuit #bespokejacket #bespokecoat #tailor #custom #handmade #handsewn #yyctailor #tailormade #buttonhole #details #yyc #calgary #madeinalberta #albertamade #alberta #madeincanada #yycsmallbusiness #yycentrepreneur #yycfashion #menswear #yycmaker #mensstyle #craftsmanship #tailormade #madetomeasure #madetoorder (at Calgary, Alberta) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpkpBj9L3tk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
