I used 4 strands of extra strong upholstery thread, with a secure knot at the tail, draw the needle through the fabric from inside to outside, then through the back of one of the holes; send the needle back down through the second hole and through the jacket fabric to the inside, tie a secure knot, hide the end of thread in between the button band and facing (type how to hide your quilting thread inside your quilt in Youtube for reference). Clip the thread and done!



Warning! This is so addictive. After I sewed the button to my daughter's jacket. I quickly popped off 14 more buttons, drilled 28 more holes and replaced the white common buttons on one of my shirts. The two projects took less than 1 hour.



Right now my daughter is doing show and tell the new geek button on her jacket in her class and I'm so ready to geek out in the spring sunshine in my new shirt!
