Remove the zigzag foot and attach the buttonhole

foot. Adjust the stitch length dial between "0.5" - "1".

The density of the stitch depends on thickness of

the fabric.

Always test sew a buttonhole.

Measure the diameter of the button and add 0.3cm

(1/8") for the bartacks. If you have a very thick

button, add more to the diameter measurement.

Mark the position and length of the buttonhole on

the fabric.

Position the fabric so that the needle is on the mark

that is furthest from you.

Pull the buttonhole foot towards you as far as it will

go.

Lower the foot.

moderate speed until you reach the end mark.

left side of the buttonhole to the mark at the end

which is further from you.

tack stitches.

Remove the fabric from under the foot. Draw the

upper thread through the backside of the fabric and

knot upper and lower threads. Cut the center of the

buttonhole with the seam ripper, being careful not to

cut the stitches on either side.

- Slightly reduce upper thread tension to produce

better results.

- Use backing material for fine and stretchy fabrics.

- It is advisable to use a gimp cord for stretch or

knit fabrics. The zigzag should sew over the gimp.
