Buttonholes
Sew ing buttonholes is very easy w ith all
the models w ith push button controls
since the fabric does not have to be
turned.
Buttonholes are generally sew n onto
a piece of doubled fabric. H ow ever,
for some fabrics, e.g. silk, organza and
viscose, it is necessary to use stabilizer to
prevent the fabric from contracting w hile
sew ing.
To produce beautiful seams, embroidering
or darning threads are ideal.
M ark the starting point of the buttonhole
either w ith a magic pen or dress pin, and
alw ays sew a sample buttonhole
À
rst.
Note: Before starting any buttonhole, always
push the guide of the buttonhole foot fully to
the front, i.e. so that the red arrow is at the
À
rst red mark. The red marks are arranged at
an interval of 0.5 cm. They are a guide when
determining the length of the buttonhole.
