sewpatty said... Thank you becca. There are a couple of different ways to do this. This is what I used on this coat. Sew the button to one side of the snap. You attach the other side of the snap to the coat. You then snap the button on as though it were sewn on. I have regular buttonholes on the coat and button/unbutton as usual. 3/27/11 9:53 AM
