How To Sew On a Button

Hand sewing buttons to a garment is very time-
consuming. Sew them on in one quick, easy step.
Select 021. The LCD screen will briefly show a message.
Drop the feed dog. See page 16.
• Set the stitch width according to the position of the
holes in the button.
Mark button placement on fabric. Use washable glue or
transparent tape to temporarily secure the button. Place
the button and fabric under the presser foot. Match the
holes in the button to the horizontal slot on the presser
foot.
Turn the flywheel by hand until the needle is down inside
the left hole of the button. Lower the presser foot.
Turn the flywheel by hand to position the needle above
the right hole of the button. Press the "Stitch Width" key
to adjust the needle over the right hole.
Stitch several times.
After you finish sewing, cut the thread leaving 10-15 cm
(4-6˝) of thread at the button.
Pull the thread to the reverse side of the fabric and tie the
threads.
Raise the feed dog after sewing on buttons.
NOTE: The optional Sewing on Button foot grips the
button better and also allows you to easily create
a thread shank.
