When I noticed the absence of a knot on the wrong side, I thought I'd better inquire into the right way - a.k.a. the neat way - to do it, and I found this video.
The original thread was similar to embroidery floss, so that's what I used. The instructions were thorough and very clear. All done!
This is a cute channel with two guys trying to show how to behave like a gentleman - good luck to them!

That is a very useful video! My mother taught me how to sew on all sorts of buttons, make button holes, darn and make many kinds of repairs when I was about ten years old. I have never forgotten her instructions and use them very often.
ReplyDeleteIt's great that you remember it, Clare!
DeleteI never learned to do anything correctly in regard to sewing and mending....so YouTube has been my teacher. It is a wonderful place to learn.
