[Ravensfort] button or not

[L T]

Did you ask your local fabric store if they could special order them for you? 
Sometimes they will and I've had Handcocks get something within 2 weeks.
Are the buttons up the front and on the sleeves...if so you can get the 1 or 3/4 inch
ones for the front...and put small ones on the sleeves...would cut down on the number
you need for each.

bit too many buttons. Sorry for the false lead.
