Corded Buttonhole

Corded buttonholes are found on coats and other
garments that require extra strong buttonholes. The
cording reinforces and accentuates the buttonhole.
Always make a test buttonhole on extra fabric before
sewing on your garment.
• Set the stitch width dial wider than the thickness of
the cording.
With the buttonhole foot raised, hook the filler cord
the spur 1 at the back of the buttonhole foot. Bring the
ends forward under the buttonhole foot. Position the cord
2
into the forks on the front of the foot to hold the ends
tight.
Sew a corded buttonhole using the same directions as
for an automatic buttonhole. Each side of the buttonhole
should be sewn over the cord. If cord is sewn through,
adjust the stitch width dial wider.
Remove the fabric from the machine and cut only the
sewing threads.
Pull the left end of the cord to tighten it. Thread the end
through a darning needle; draw to the wrong side of the
fabric and cut.
Cut open buttonhole.
