Note:
Before sewing a buttonhole on your project,
practice on a scrap piece of the same type of
fabric.
Mark the positions of the buttonhole on the
fabric.
The maximum buttonhole length is 3cm. (Total
of diameter + thickness of button.)
The size of the buttonhole is determined by
the button inserted in the button plate.
Pull the button holder plate to the back, and
place the button in it. Push back the button
holder plate against the button to hold it tight.
Attach the buttonhole foot.
The thread should be passed through the
hole in the presser foot, then be placed under
the foot.
Position the fabric under the presser foot with
the front end of the buttonhole mark aligned
with the center line on the buttonhole foot.
