Sewing on Buttons
Install the darning plate. (1) Change the all
purpose foot to the button sewing foot. Set
the stitch length to "0".
To sew a few securing stitches, set the
machine for straight stitch, with the stitch
width set at "0".
Raise the needle out of the fabric. Set the
machine for zig-zag stitch, then set the
width to number "3" - "5". Turn the
handwheel to check that the needle goes
cleanly into the left and right holes of the
button. Adjust the stitch width, as needed,
according to the distance between the
holes of the button. Slowly sew on the
button with about 10 stitches.
Raise the needle out of the fabric. Set the
machine for straight stitch again, with the
width at "0" sew a few securing stitches to
finish.
If a shank is required, place a darning
needle on top of the button and sew. (3)
For buttons with 4 holes, sew through the
front two holes first, push the work forward
and then sew through the back two holes.
