Ruth Schmuff's summer mystery class was Sandra Vargas's "Owl with Key." The owl's tummy was covered with an elaborate beaded flower with a Czech button in the middle. Now Ruth has made a standalone kit of this beaded flower for those who want to have a stunning pin or who just want to play with something totally different.

Czech buttons are widely available on eBay so you can learn the process from Ruth's kit, then do another with a button of your choosing. For example, here's a stunner owl button.
