	F-1.5	Fixed 5	Buttonhole Foot

NOTE:

1.It is recommended to practice making a buttonhole on a scrap piece of fabric before attempting it on the actual garment.

2.When making buttonholes on soft fabrics, place a stabilizer material on the underside of the fabric.

One-step buttonhole-making is a simple process that provides reliable results.

MAKING A BUTTONHOLE

1.Using tailor’s chalk, mark the position of the buttonhole on the fabric.

2.Set the Pattern Selection Dial to Buttonhole.

3.Attach the buttonhole foot, pull open the button holder and insert a button. (See fig. B)

* The size of the buttonhole is determined by the button inserted into the button holder.

4.Align the red line on the presser foot with the mark on the fabric, then lower the Presser Foot Lever. Be sure to pass the thread under the presser foot and pull it toward you. (See fig. C)

NOTE:

Do not lower the Presser Foot Lever while pushing in the area of the presser foot marked ain fig. C. Otherwise the buttonhole will not be sewn with the correct size.
