Tips on buttonholing

Always make a practice buttonhole on a scrap of fabric you plan to

use. Try the buttonhole with the button you will use,

Always use an interfacing in area of garment where buttonholes are placed.

Tissue paper or regular interfacing can be used. Tear paper away after stitching, if it is used..

For heavier weight fabrics, loosen y'our top thread tension slightly.
