In this class, you will learn the basics of making a Dorset button and then a few more advanced techniques.  A Dorset button is a style of craft-made button originating in the English county of Dorset. Their manufacture was at a peak between 1622 and 1850, after which they were overtaken by machine-made buttons from factories.  They are beautiful to use in your hand-embroidered pieces or make a piece of jewelry!
