It involves a bit of work [url=http://www.knittingfabric.cc/]Rayon Fabric[/url] knittingfabric.cc , but making loops from bias tape that matches whatever you're working on creates a nice effect.

You can also handwork a thread loop, which works well on delicate, lightweight fabrics such as silk and chiffon.

Frog closures will add a unique twist when used in place of buttons. They look best on vests, jackets and bags.

Your traced lines will not match up exactly, of course, so blend together as best as possible. Transfer any markings, darts or grain lines and repeat for your remaining pattern pieces.

A frog closure can be sewn on by machine (use a zig-zag stitch, tracing the shape of the frog as you sew), although it is easy enough to sew on by hand.

You can purchase frog closures, or make your own out of cording or braided trim.

Are you pear shaped? Are you bottom heavy? Or are you top heavy? These are some of many questions to ask yourself.

Toggle closures are another button alternative and a good option [url=http://www.knittingfabric.cc/]Suede Fabric[/url] knittingfabric.cc for outerwear. You can purchase toggles pre-assembled or make your own with toggle buttons, rope and leather.
