Sewing a 4-Step Buttonhole

Stitch Selector Dial
1. Remove the All Purpose Foot and attach the Buttonhole Foot (see
page 26). Pass upper thread through the hole of the foot and bring
thread to the left.
2. Set the Stitch Selector Dial so that step 1 of the buttonhole symbol is
directly below the dot on the front of the machine.
3. Set the Stitch Length Dial control so that the buttonhole range is
directly below the dot.
4. With the presser foot raised, slide the Buttonhole Foot as far back as
it will go. Place the fabric under the foot so that the center line mark
on your fabric is aligned with the center of the buttonhole foot and
that the cross line mark on the fabric aligns with the center hole of the
Buttonhole Foot.
5. Lower the presser foot, and sew step 1 of the buttonhole until you
arrive at the top of the buttonhole. Turn the hand wheel toward you to
raise the needle out of the fabric.
6. Set the Stitch Selector Dial so that step 2 of the buttonhole symbol
is directly below the dot. Sew 4 to 5 stitches across the top of the
buttonhole, this is called a bar tack.
7. Set the Stitch Selector Dial so that step 3 of the buttonhole symbol is
directly below the dot. Sew down the right side of the buttonhole.
8. Set the Stitch Selector Dial so that step 4 of the buttonhole symbol
is directly below the dot. Sew 4 to 5 stitches across the bottom of the
buttonhole to form the bar tack.
