STRAIGHT STITCH BUTTONHOLE
Owner's manual page___
• Mark two lines perpendicular to the fold, spacing them about 2" apart.
• Attach Automatic Buttonhole Foot with Slide #3A to the machine.
• Select Straight Stitch Buttonhole #59.
• Use any one of the available methods (button measuring, direct entry) to set a 29mm buttonhole.
• Position the beginning of the buttonhole on the first line, aligning the fold with the
behind the foot.
• Stitch the buttonhole on the first line. Use the Automatic Thread Cutter to cut the thread.
• Position the needle on the second line. Stitch another straight stitch buttonhole - do not remove fabric.
• Select Standard Buttonhole #51 - sew this buttonhole (the same 29mm size) directly on top of the
straight stitch buttonhole.
Notes:
- Straight stitch buttonholes can be used to pre-sew and reinforce buttonholes on fabrics
which fray easily. The buttonhole beads and bartacks will cover the stitching. Any of the
methods for determining the buttonhole lengths can be used.
- Straight stitch buttonholes can be used as a buttonhole on imitation suede and leather.
- The distance between the prestitched lines can be adjusted with the stitch width. The stitch
length can also be adjusted to suit the fabric.
