I love the coloured button bands!
I finished mine as well and I gave it a "test drive" to work, then added some more buttons...which I didn't mind doing at all. I have a wee button fetish as well, but I didn't have enough...which gave me an idea to find 3 or 4 types of buttons of the same size and colour, and use them alternately on my next vest, which will be a deep charcoal grey.
If I can figure out how to take a picture of me in the vest, without showing my face (I have this...thing about...oh, never mind...) I'll post it.
Great design, great pattern!
