Sewing Buttonholes - Husqvarna Viking Sapphire 875 Quilt User Manual

Sewing buttonholes

The buttonholes in your sewing machine are specially adjusted
for different kinds of fabric and garments. Look at the stitch
table on the last pages in this book to nd descriptions of each
buttonhole.
The Exclusive SEWING ADVISOR™ feature will select the best
buttonhole and stitch settings for your fabric. Fabric should be
interfaced and/or stabilized where buttonholes are to be sewn.
Automatic One-Step Sensor Buttonholes
When you select a buttonhole stitch with the Sensor One-Step
Buttonhole Foot connected, you will be able to set the size of
the button on the GraphicDisplay using the up and down arrow
buttons. When sewing, your sewing machine automatically
sews the buttonhole long enough to t the selected button size.
Because the Sensor One-Step Buttonhole Foot measures as it
sews, every buttonhole will be the same size.
The buttonhole size will vary with the thickness
NOTE:
and style of your button. Always stitch a sample
buttonhole on scrap fabric rst.
1. Attach the Sensor One-Step Buttonhole Foot.
2. Plug the cord into the socket above the needle area, behind
the light bulb.
3. Measure the button diameter using the button measuring
chart on the front of the machine.
4. Use the up and down arrow buttons to set the button size on
the GraphicDisplay. The size can be set between 0-50 mm.
5. Place the fabric and stabilizer under the Sensor One-Step
Buttonhole Foot. The measurement wheel can be raised by
lifting it, which makes it easier to place the fabric under the
presser foot. Use the markings on the left toe of the Sensor
One-Step Buttonhole Foot to position the garment edge.
Place the edge of the garment at the middle mark to have
5/8'' (15 mm) from the edge to the buttonhole.
6. Before sewing, line up white area on the side of the red wheel
with the white marking line on the foot.
7. Step on the foot control. The Sensor One-Step Buttonhole
Foot lowers automatically. A straight stitch is sewn away
from you stabilizing the left buttonhole column, then the
satin column is sewn toward you. This is repeated for the
right column. The bartacks are also sewn automatically.
The arrows on the GraphicDisplay will show when each
part of the buttonhole is sewn and in what direction. Keep
the foot control depressed until the buttonhole is nished.
The machine will stop automatically when the buttonhole is
complete.
