Utility/Garment Sewing
• Step on the foot control, the Sensor Buttonho-
le Foot lowers automatically. A straight stitch
is sewn away from you indicating the left
button-hole column, then the satin column
is sewn toward you. This is repeated for the
right column. The bartacks are automatic (Il-
lustration 1). Keep the foot control depressed
until the Thread Cutter cuts the threads and
the Sensor Button-hole Foot is raised. When
sewing buttonholes without sa tin 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 on a very
narrow area, snap on the stan dard foot C and follow
the step by step buttonhole instructions on page 52.
