To sew especially durable buttonholes,

recommend using a gimp thread.

stretching.
Lay the gimp thread over the rear
protrusion A and pass the thread ends
underneath the presser foot towards the
front.
Clamp the threads to the left and right
of protrusion B.
Slide the buttonhole runner as
far forwards as possible and sew the
buttonhole as described for your select
model.
Pull the loop of the gimp thread into
the buttonhole and cut the threads.
Carfully cut open your buttonhole with scissors or
a seam ripper.
