• Mark the positions of the buttonhole on the fabric.
The maximum buttonhole length is 3cm (1 3/16 inch). (Total of
diameter + thickness of button.)
• Attach the buttonhole foot, then pull out the button
holder plate and insert the button.
• The size of the buttonhole is determined by the button
inserted in the button plate.
• The thread should be passed through the hole in the
presser foot, then be placed under the foot.
• Select the buttonhole stitch.
• Adjust the stitch width and the stitch length to the
desired width and density.
A Starting point
Before sewing a buttonhole on your project, practice on a
scrap piece of the same type of fabric.
