6.Gently hold the end of the upper thread, and then start sewing. Feed the fabric carefully by hand while the buttonhole is sewn. Once sewing is completed, the machine automatically sews reinforcement stitches, and then stops.

Note

If automatic thread cutting is turned on before you start sewing, both threads are automatically cut after the rein- forcement stitches are sewn. If the fabric does not feed (for example, because it is too thick), increase the stitch length setting.

7.Insert a pin along the inside of one of the bar tacks, and then insert the seam ripper into the center of the buttonhole and cut towards the pin.

CAUTION

When using the seam ripper to open the button- hole, do not put your hand or finger in the path of the ripper. The ripper may slip and cause injury.

For Keyhole Buttonholes:

Use the eyelet punch to make a hole in the rounded end of the buttonhole. Then insert a pin along the inside of one of the bar tacks, insert a seam ripper into the hole made with the eyelet punch, and cut towards the pin.
