Hi,
You don't have to apologize, your assumption was correct, I am totally blind
as is my husband.

Hello all,
I responded with an idea earlier before seeing this message. I
recommended sewing tiny buttons on the articles of clothing. I'm of
course assuming the situation involoves someone who's totally blind. My
apologies for assuming; I'm totally blind myself and more times than
not, I'm always thinking of non-visual means of doing things.
