    Prince Charlie jacket buttons

    Hey, folks! I just got myself a nice vest that I'm converting to an Argylle. I want some o' 'dem diamond shaped thistle buttons to put on it, but I don't know where to look. Can anyone help me out a little bit?

    Thanks!!!

    Hey Nighthawk, glad you started this thread. I'm starting my own jacket/vest conversion project. Could you keep us informed on how this goes and so on?

    I'll keep an eye on this... I don't know anything about the buttons and hope to find out...
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    You can also get them from JHiggins, but you have to call....they aren't on the website. Good luck with your project!!
