■ Changing the stitch width

Adjust the stitch width.

• For details, refer to “Adjusting the stitch

width” (page 57).

Memo

z Before sewing buttonholes, check the stitch

length and width by sewing a trial

buttonhole on a scrap piece of fabric.

■ Sewing buttonholes on stretch fabrics

When sewing buttonholes on stretch fabrics, use

a gimp thread.

Hook the gimp thread onto the part of

buttonhole foot “A” shown in the illustration

so that it fits into the grooves, and then loosely

tie it.

Attach buttonhole foot “A”.

• For details, refer to “Replacing the presser

foot” (page 39).

Select stitch

Adjust the stitch width to the thickness of the

gimp thread.

Lower the presser foot lever and the

buttonhole lever, and then start sewing.

When sewing is finished, gently pull the gimp

thread to remove any slack.

Use a handsewing needle to pull the gimp

thread to the wrong side of the fabric, and

then tie it.

With a seam ripper, cut the middle part of the

gimp thread remaining at the top end of the

buttonhole.

Trim off any excess of the gimp thread.
