Buttonhole Variations
All buttonholes should use interfacing that is the same
weight as the fabric. Interfacing is especially important
when sewing on stretch fabrics.
Classic Buttonhole (2 versions – 13 is automatic
and 19 is a 4 step programmable)
The most common buttonhole, found on blouses, shirts,
pants, etc. It consists of a bartack at each end and a
compact zigzag stitch along each side.
Heirloom Buttonhole
An ultra fine buttonhole featuring a preset stitch width
and length to complement delicate fabrics. The bartacks
at each end contain half the stitch count when compared
to the classic buttonhole.
Classic Keyhole Buttonhole
Accommodates the shank found on large buttons used
on heavy coats and jackets.
Rounded Buttonhole
Use this buttonhole for large buttons on lightweight
fabric.
Stretch Buttonhole
Designed for non-woven fabrics such as knit and jersey.
It provides a decorative touch.
Knit Buttonhole
A simplified version of the stretch buttonhole.
Test sew the buttonhole on a sample swatch of the same
fabric. Include the interfacing and any seam allowances
that will be in the actual garment. This is very important
to ensure the buttonhole style and fabric are compatible.
