Re: How to Hand-Sew a Buttonhole

I am sorry - but this looks awful to me. I learned to sew buttonholes when I as a young girl started to make the Norwegian national costumes for men. For every custume I have to make 52 buttonholes, and that in bright green on black wool. So they just have to be perfect. What I saw here is not good. I just whish that I was good enough on the PC to show you how to sew a really beatuful buttonhole, but alas I am past 70 years, and not able to do it. But it is really bad if this is to be the only way to teach young peaple how to.
