Button sewing
Install the darning plate.
Position the work under the foot.
Align two holes of the button with the slot
of the presser foot and lower the foot to
hold the button securely.
Turn the handwheel to check that the
needle goes cleanly into the left and right
hole of the button.
Make sure that the needle does not hit
the button during sewing, otherwise the
needle may break.
Sew approximately 10 stitches at slow
speed.
Raise the foot and cut the remaining
threads about 10 cm from the fabric.
Pull the end of the upper thread to the
back of the fabric, then tie it with the
bobbin thread.
If a shank is required (ex. sew on coats
or jackets), place a darning needle on top
of the button and sew.
For buttons with 4 holes, sew through
the front two holes first, push the work
forward and then sew through the back
two holes.
Remove the darning plate.
