Operation Manual

With
the
following
tips
perfect
buttonholes
can
be
achieved
on
even
the
most
difficult
fabrics:
—
A
wider,
less
dense
buttonhole
is
recommended
on heavy
fabrics.
—
Buttonholes
that
are
to
be
sewn
very
close
to
a
reinforced
edge,
may
sometimes
not
feed
optimally
with
the
buttonhole
foot
In
this
case,
use
the
presser
foot
No.
1.
—
Materials
that
shift
or stretch
easily
should
be
reinforced
with
water-soluble,
tissue
paper
or
other
lightweight
stabilizer.
—
Keyhole
buttonholes
are
particularly
stable
and
durable
if
a
gimp
thread
is
inserted
while
sewing
(see
“Keyhole
buttonhole
with
gimp
threadi.
—
Linen
buttonholes
are
particularly
dense
and
attractive
if
you
use
embroidery
and
darning
thread.
—
Buttonholes
are
normally
selected
a
little
larger
than
the
button
diameter.
It
is
important
to
always
sew
a
test
buttonhole
on
the
same
fabric/stabilizer
as
your
project
