thread ).
Try a practice buttonhole first.

2. Bring the ends toward you under the buttonhole foot until they clear the front end.
3. Hook the filler cord into the forks on the front of the J foot to hold them tight.
4. Lower the needle into the garment where the buttonhole will start and lower the foot.
5. Sew the buttonhole according to the buttonhole sewing instructions on p. 119 to 122. Each side of the buttonhole and the
bartacks will be sewn over the cord.
