7. Raise the presser foot and cut the thread. To sew the buttonhole once again,
raise the presser foot and it will return to original position. When you have
finished sewing buttonholes, push the buttonhole lever up until it stops.
8. Cut the centre 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.

Buttonholes on stretch fabrics

For buttonholes on stretch fabrics, use gimp thread.
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.
Adjust the stitch width to the thickness of the gimp thread
2. Once sewing is completed, pull the gimp thread gently to remove any slack,
then trim off any excess.
Note:
– It is suggested that you use interfacing on the wrong side of the fabric.
