To
secure the stitching,
tum
the material
90 degrees counterclockwise and sew
straight
st
itches
to
the end of the front
bar
tack of the buttonhole.
Remove the material from the machine.
We recommend
that
you
put
pins across
both ends
of
the buttonhole
to
preve
nt
the
stitches from being cut.
Cut
an
opening in
the
middle of the
buttonhole with the seam ripper tool.
Be
careful not
to
cut
through any stitches.

of

ripper may
slip and you may be injured.
