SECTION 5
FOU R-STEP BUTTON HOLING
Your machine makes buttonholes in four easy steps.
• You never need to move the fabric or reposition the
needle.
• Always make a practice buttonhole on a sample of
your fabric.
• Be sure bobbin contains enough thread.
• When making buttonholes on hard-to-reach areas
convert machine bed to free arm sewing.
• Mark buttonhole position on fabric as indicated in pat-
tern.
When sewing delicate fabrics, place a piece of paper
over the fabric when positioning the garment. Lower
the presser foot and slip the paper out from under the
foot. This will prevent the teeth on the underside of the
foot from picking and pulling the fabric.
