3. Place the stabilizer on the wrong side of the fabric.
4. Position fabric under the needle and place the button as
desired. Lower the needle into one hole.
5. Check the distance between the holes of the button by
turning the hand wheel. Adjust the stitch width if necessary
so that the left and right swings of the needle fall into the
holes of the button. Hold the thread tails as you begin to
sew.
6. Sew 6-8 stitches, and stop. Bring the thread tails to the
wrong side of the fabric and knot them together; trim the
excess thread.

Stitch bartacks to attach charms, snaps, hooks, eyes, and
ribbons using the same technique described above.
