BUTTONHOLES

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

of

Various

fabrics

require

 

various

 

methods

sewing buttonholes.

 

Four

different

methods

are

given

below, with

suggested

uses.

 

 

If

 

you

are

in doubt

as

to

which

method

is

best

for

your

fabric,

 

test

the

methods

in

 

question

 

and

choose

the

 

best

according

to

 

the

 

finished

appearance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PREPARATION

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

merceriz

For

the

best

results,

a

good

quality

ed

cotton

thread

should

be

used.

 

Polyester

or

heavy

threads

often

result

in

puckered

unattractive

buttonholes.

 

The

finer

 

your

fabric is,

the finer your

cotton

thread

should

be.

 

An

interfacing

should

be

used

under

the

buttonholes

to

give

body,

to

strengthen,

 

and

to help them

withstand

wear.

To

establish

the

correct

length

of

the

 

buttonhole,

add

 

the

diameter

of

the

button

(A),

plus

the

thickness

of the button (B),

plus 1/8 inch

for the

bartacks.

The

length

 

may

be marked

on

the

 

garment

with

a basting stitch,

tailors chalk, or

transparent

tape,

as shown.

Another way

to

make

sure

that

all

buttonholes will be

the

same

size is

to cut a

piece

of

cardboard

as

wide

as

the

buttonhole

foot

and

long

enough

to

make

the

 

distance

between

the

toe

of the

white

slide

and

the

card

board the

size buttonhole

needed.

This

method

works for

buttonholes

up to

1-1/8 inches

long.

Horizontal

buttonholes

should

extend

1/8

inch

 

beyond

the

center

line

of

the

garment.

Vertical

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

buttonholes

are

placed

so

that the

cutting

space

of

the buttonhole

is

directly

on

the

center

line.

Always

make a

practice

buttonhole

on

a

scrap

 

any

of

the

garment

fabric

before

making

 

buttonholes

on

your

garment.

 

On

your

test

sample,

duplicate

the

thickness

 

found

in

the

garment

and

be

sure

to

include

the interfacmg.

The

test sample should help determine the length

needed

for

the

button

to

pass

through

easily,

and

the

stitch length

for

the

particular

fabric.

 

 

 

As

withthe

satin

stitch,

the

stitches

should be

close together,

but

not

so

close

that

they

pile

 

up.

 

Be sure to use

the

buttonhole

foot.
