SEWING ON BUTTONS

No. 13
Button Sewing Foot
1. Lower the feed dogs by moving the drop feed
lever to the left.
2. Attach the button sewing foot. Align two holes
of the button with slot of presser foot and lower
foot to hold the button securely.
3. Adjust the stitch width so that the needle enters
the left hole of button.
4. Turn hand wheel by hand so needle enters the
second hole. You may need to adjust the stitch
width again.
CAUTION: To prevent accidents.
Make sure that the needle does not hit the button
during sewing. Otherwise needle may break.
5. Sew approximately 10 stitches at slow speed.
6. Raise the foot and cut the threads remaining
about 10 cm to the fabric.
7. Pull the end of bobbin thread and pull upper
thread to the wrong side of fabric. Tie them
together.
8. After sewing, move the drop feed lever to the
right.
Note:
To sew a 4-hole button, follow the procedure above
for the fi rst two holes. Then lift presser foot slightly
and move fabric to permit stitching the other two
holes, either independently, or criss-cross over the
fi rst two holes.
A. Thread Shank
Buttons on coats and jackets should have a thread
shank to make them stand away from the fabric.
Insert a straight pin or sewing machine needle
under the center slit of the foot from the front. Sew
over the pin or needle.
Pull thread to back of button and wind around
stitches to form a fi rm shank. Tie thread ends
securely.
