Sewing On Buttons

The Button Sew-on Program can be used to sew on buttons with two or four holes, press studs or snap fasteners.

  1. Fit the zigzag foot or button-sew-on foot.
  2. Set the stitch pattern selector knob to B.
  3. Lower the feed dog.
  4. Fit the button into the sewing project.
  5. For a button with four holes, sew the front holes first.
  6. Check distances between holes with the handwheel. If necessary, alter the stitch width.
  1. Hold the threads when starting to sew.
  2. Sew a few stitches using the machine. To ensure stability, sew around 10 stitches.
  3. To strengthen the shank, cut the threads, leaving about 10 cm.
  4. Bring the upper thread through one of the holes in the button and wind it around the shank.
  5. Bring the upper thread to the wrong side of the fabric and tie it in a knot.
