UTILITY STITCHES ——————————————————————————————————————————————————

Attaching a shank to a button

To sew the button with a shank, attach the button with space between it and the fabric, and then wind the thread by hand. This attaches the button securely.

1Place the button into button-sewing foot “M”, and then pull the shank lever toward you.

2After sewing is finished, cut the upper thread with plenty of excess, wind it around the thread between the button and the fabric, and then tie it to the upper thread at the beginning of the stitching.

Tie together the ends of the bobbin thread at the end and at the beginning of the stitching at the wrong side of the fabric.

3Cut off any excess thread.
