Sewing Buttonhole with gimp thread Buttonholes that are sewn with gimp cord under the satin stitch columns are more stable, durable and have a professional appearance. Use pearl cotton or regular gimp thread. Insert the senormatic buttonhole guide. Place the center of a length of gimp cord over the metal hook extending from the center back of the buttonhole foot. Pass the cord ends under the foot and pull up into the right and left guides on the front of the presser foot. Snap on the buttonhole foot. Before starting to sew, pull it backward as far as the second red mark. After completing the buttonhole, pull the ends of gimp cord until the loop of thread is hidden under the buttonhole bartack. Thread the gimp cord ends into a hand sewing needle and pull them to the wrong side of the garment. Tie the gimp threads and cut off the excess thread.

Pass the cord ends under the foot and pull up into the right and left guides on the back of the presser foot. Snap on the buttonhole foot and pull the slide of the foot towards you until the red arrow matches the second red mark. Before starting to sew, press the "needle down" button. Sew the right side of the buttonhole. After the machine sews the first few stitches of the curved end pull the gimp cords down from the metal hook. Warning: The presser foot must not be raised from the fabric surface! Pull the gimp cord on the left towards the rear until the loop is just in front of the needle. Carefully sew the curve, guiding the gimp cord under the stitching. After sewing the curve, thread the gimp cords into a hand sewing needle and pull them to the wrong side of the garment. Tie the gimp cords and cut off excess cord. Note: The Eyelet buttonhole, no. 22, must be sewn with the rounded end towards the edge of your garment/project. However, the buttonhole will begin sewing from the bartack end. It is important to first mark the length, measuring from the starting point inwards. Always sew the buttonhole from the inside to the outside towards the edge. 4:15
