When sewing buttonholes on
stretch fabric, hook heavy thread
or cord under the button-hole
foot.
Attach the buttonhole foot and
hook the gimp thread onto the
back of the presser foot.
Bring the two gimp thread ends
to the front of the foot and insert
them into the grooves, then
temporarily tie them there.
Lower the presser foot and start
sewing.
Set the stitch width to match the
diameter of the gimp thread.
Once sewing is completed, pull
the gimp thread gently to
remove any slack, then trim off
any excess.
It is suggested that you use
interfacing on the backside of
the fabric.
