Prepare
Note:
Tips:
Corded buttonhole:
1. Take off the all purpose foot and attach the buttonhole
foot.
2. Measure diameter and thickness of button and add 0.3
cm (1/8") for bar tacks; mark buttonhole size on fabric.
3. Place fabric under the foot, so that marking on the
buttonhole foot aligns with starting marking on fabric.
Lower the foot, so that the buttonhole center line marked
on the fabric aligns with the center of the buttonhole foot.
Adjust the stitch length dial in the " " to set stitch density.
density varies according to the fabric. Always test
sew a buttonhole.
Follow the 4-step sequence changing from one step to
another with the stitch pattern selector dial. Take care not to
sew too many stitches in stages 2 and 4. Use seam ripper
and cut buttonhole open from both ends towards the middle.
- Slightly reducing upper thread tension will produce better
results.
- Use a backing for fine or stretchy fabrics.
For added stability hook a fine cord over the small
extension at the back if the foot, run the cord under the foot
and then secure both ends into opening at the front of the
foot. Proceed to sew out the buttonhole over the cord.
