The back of the Cover Button Kit has a template outline printed on it. Cut it out carefully.

Trace the template 6- 10 times on to your fabric, at least 3" from the fabric's edges.   I like to prepare for more buttons than I'm actually making so I have room to mess up.

Center the button shell in each circle and trace around it. This will be your embroidery area. (As a side note, can you find me in the above picture?)

And now draw your design inside of each inner circle. I drew little flowers but you could do whatever you like: initials, animals, fruits, hearts, stars... anything you can fit into a 5/8" space.
