Buttonholes Buttonhole tips: • A wider, less dense buttonhole is recommended on heavy fabrics. • Use presser foot No. 1 for buttonholes that are to be sewn very close to a reinforced edge. • Materials that shift or stretch easily should be reinforced with water-soluble, tissue paper or other lightweight stabilizer. • Keyhole buttonholes are particularly stable and durable if a gimp thread is inserted while sewing (see "Keyhole buttonhole with gimp thread"). • Linen buttonholes are particularly dense and attractive if you use buttonhole twist thread. • Buttonholes are normally selected a little larger than the button diameter. It is important to always sew a test buttonhole on the same fabric/stabilizer as your project 5:7

Buttonholes
Buttonhole tips:
A wider, less dense buttonhole is recommended on
heavy fabrics.
Use presser foot No. 1 for buttonholes that are to be
sewn very close to a reinforced edge.
Materials that shift or stretch easily should be reinforced
with water-soluble, tissue paper or other lightweight
stabilizer.
Keyhole buttonholes are particularly stable and durable
if a gimp thread is inserted while sewing (see "Keyhole
buttonhole with gimp thread").
Linen buttonholes are particularly dense and attractive if
you use buttonhole twist thread.
Buttonholes are normally selected a little larger than
the button diameter. It is important to always sew a test
buttonhole on the same fabric/stabilizer as your project
