When sewing buttonholes without satin stitches or when
using presser foot C, the sewing steps are different (there is
no straight stitch step). See illustration 2.
Note: If you are sewing buttonholes in a very narrow area, snap
on the standard foot C and sew your buttonhole according to the
instructions below.
MANUAL BUTTONHOLE
To sew a manual buttonhole, use buttonhole foot C.
•
Sew the rst column as long as you want the
buttonhole to be.
•
Touch the reverse button. The machine sews the
bartack and the second column.
•
When the columns are aligned, press the reverse
button to sew the second bartack.
EMBROIDERED BUTTONHOLE
Buttonholes can also be stitched out in an embroidery
hoop. See page 7:2.

•
Place fabric, multipurpose tool and button under the
ankle with the holes in the button lined up with the
swing of the needle. Check the swing of the needle
using the mirror side-to-side button to be sure the
needle will not hit the button. Adjust stitch width if
needed. Bring the needle down into the hole of the
button.
•
Set the number of stitches to sew on the button (see
page 4:6). 6-8 stitches is normal.
•
The machine stitches the button and automatically ties
off.
Note: Place the thin end of the multipurpose tool under the button
when sewing on light fabrics. Use the thick end for heavier fabrics.
Hold in place on the fabric with transparent tape.
Note: The recommended width of 3.0 is set for most buttons. If you
sew a tiny button or a very large coat button, decrease ( ) or increase
(+) the stitch width until the swing of the needle sews in the holes of
the button or snap.
