1Carefully mark the buttonhole length on your garment. Mount the button- hole guide onto the presser foot so

that rear edge of presser foot is at

the rear end of the guide, with upper thread as shown. Place the fabric

with buttonhole marked, under the buttonhole guide.

Without lowering the foot, let the needle pierce the fabric at the be- ginning of the buttonhole. Lower presser foot.

Reproduction of the identical size buttonholes is facilitated with the aid of the graduations on the left side of the buttonhole guide.

These graduations are 1/8" apart.

Always start buttonhole with foot positioned at rear end of the guide. After first buttonhole is made, al- ways stitch forward to point on front of guide as with first buttonhole. Graduations act as reference mark.
