Bought a blouse at TJ Max and know why it was sold there. Cute short sleeve summer blouse BUT could not get the front unbuttoned. Seems the buttonholes were way to small for the buttons. So, went to my button stash and found 2 sets of buttons (very old). 3 buttons for $.80 from West Germany and the other 3 buttons (not quite as old) for $1.50 from Japan. Beautiful buttons that will improve the look of my new blouse.
Another reason it’s good to be a sewist!
