BUTTONHOLE STITCHING
BUTTONHOLE STITCHING
8. Cut the center of the buttonhole being
careful not to cut any stitches on either side.
Use a pin as a stopper at the bartack so
you do not cut too much.

When sewing buttonholes on stretch fabric, hook heavy thread or cord under the
buttonhole foot.
1. Attach the buttonhole foot and hook the
gimp thread onto the back of the presser
foot. Bring the two gimp thread ends to the
front of the foot and insert them into the
grooves, then temporarily tie them there.
Lower the presser foot and start sewing.
Set the stitch width to match the diameter
of the gimp thread.
2. Once sewing is completed, pull the gimp
thread gently to remove any slack, then
trim off any excess.
Please Note: It is suggested that you use interfacing on the backside of the fabric.
