Automatic Buttonhole
All buttonholes should use interfacing that is the same
weight as the fabric. Interfacing is especially important
when sewing on stretch fabrics. Always make a test
buttonhole on extra fabric before sewing on your fabric.
Use a narrower stitch width (4) for a finer
buttonhole, a wider stitch width(6.5) for a more
substantial buttonhole.
Use a shorter stitch length (0.5) for finer fabrics, a
longer stitch length (1) for heavier fabrics. Remain
within the range of the buttonhole illustration.

2. Pull open the buttonholder to the back and place
the button in it. Push the buttonholder together tightly
around the button.
NOTE: Placing the button in the automatic buttonhole
foot automatically sets the size of the buttonhole. The
button holder on the foot adjusts for a button up to 2.5 cm
(1”) in diameter. If you are using a novelty button or
extremely thick button that does not fit through the test
buttonhole, pull the buttonholder open to lengthen the
buttonhole .
3. Pull the buttonhole lever down as far as it will go.
