  I’ve just started playing with fabric buttons.
  What does calibration for fabric buttons entail?
  After the machine is calibrated, can I still use it for paper buttons, or do I need to have two machines if I get into fabrics big time?

  Embroidery on buttons
  Hi, I’m new and this is my first post. I’ve been making buttons for about 10 years, and my favorite buttons are the 3″ mirrors with fabric. I also have embroidery machines and have been toying with the idea of embroidering on the fabric and then putting making the mirrors. My question – do you use the mylars with this method (also the ponytail holders) or does it just depend on the thickness of the fabric? I normally embroider on the cutaway stabilizer and leave it as a backing for the fabric.

  Thanks,
  Brenda

  I want to make a 1” fabric covered button with your Black-n-Red Series button maker but I do not see that option available on your website. Do you make a 1” button machine for making 1” fabric covered buttons?
