-rummaging around in my sewing kit, I pull out a thick bone needle that's good for going through leather and gut thread... handing them to you, followed by a leather vest and a handful of buttons.. they're plastic and I'd probably traded for them, as they'd obviously been popped off some barbarian's clothes... lastly I give you a bit of chaulk- first, thread the needle... count how many buttons and mark that many dots down along the edge of this side of the vest... then sew them on.. just pull the needle in and out of those little holes. try to make them as even as possible.

Yes, Mistress. i can do that. *And indeed i had, when free, sewn buttons onto coats and such. i took the chalk and marked off several small x's down the side of the vest, then ran a heavy thread through the needle, first licking the end of the thread to sharpen the tip so i could guide it through the needle. Then i pulled it through the needle and tied off the ends of the thread to keep it in place.*

-watching you, I chuckle, because obviously you've done some sewing- do you know how to make the button holes, too?

and says to CashaPanther Guard**Pant:
*i poked the needle through the heavy leather, sliding it through the leather and through the hole in the button, then poked it back through the button and the leather and back out the other side, then slid the needle through the loop in the thread, pulling it tight and fastening the button in place. Then i poked the needle up through the leather and the button again, pulling it out the top, and then back into the button and the leather, looping the thread around the button holes.*

That i do not know, Mistress. i can sew buttons on, but i can't do much more than that.

and says to CashaPanther Guard**Pant:
*i moved on to the third button, expertly aiming the bone needle into the button, through it, out the other side, tugging it through the leather and pulling the heavy thread through, then looping it over and back down through the button again on the other side, then tugging it through, then evening the ends of the thread and tying them together in a little knot. And then bringing the needle around and up through the leather and the button once again....*

Three more buttons, Mistress. *i said, intently securing another loop around the buttons. i didn't want to be whipped or killed because a button popped off out in the forest one day*

*i nodded, watching as she demonstrated.* Yes, Mistress. i understand. When the buttons are all sewn on, i'm to cut and sew the holes for them.

yes, Mistress. i will take the vest out to the fire to work on it there. *i picked up a small knife for cutting the button holes and carried the vest, spool of thread, and needle out of the hut, following Mistress*
