Sue Farrah discovered a sewing group who were making Head Bands for masks - as wearing the elastic around ears can become extremely uncomfortable. Linda Doyle, keeper of OVBC supplies, which include our giant poke box of buttons, led to Linda sorting and sorting - only to put together over 400 buttons, all packaged and ready for delivery. Thanks to all for their work. Buttons required measure 3/4 inch... and the sewers do not mind if they do not match!
In total, our club has donated over 2000 buttons in the last week!

The Ottawa Valley Button Club is a group of people with a passion for clothing buttons. Learning about, preserving and displaying buttons is part of the joy of collecting buttons. It will take you on a fascinating discovery journey that can involve history, art, fashion, socio-economics, workmanship and production.
