4. Instruccions de funcionament
The Button Sewing Foot is designed for attaching two-hole and four-hole buttons, as well as hook-and-eye closures.
4.1. Attaching Buttons
- Prepare Fabric: Mark the desired button placement on your fabric.
- Botó de posició: Place the button on the marked spot. Lower the Button Sewing Foot over the button, ensuring the button is centered in the foot's opening. The foot will hold the button securely.
- Select Stitch: Set your sewing machine to a zigzag stitch. Adjust the stitch width so that the needle swings from one hole of the button to the other without hitting the button itself. Adjust stitch length to zero or a very short length, depending on your machine's capabilities for button sewing.
- Lower Feed Dogs: For best results, lower the feed dogs on your sewing machine. Consult your machine's manual for instructions on how to do this. If your machine does not have this feature, you may need to manually guide the fabric carefully.
- Sew Button: Slowly begin sewing, allowing the needle to pass through the buttonholes. Sew 8-10 stitches for a secure attachment.
- Secure Thread: Raise the needle and presser foot. Pull the fabric away, leaving long thread tails. Tie off the threads on the underside of the fabric or use your machine's tie-off function if available.
- For Four-Hole Buttons: Repeat the process for the second pair of holes.
4.2. Attaching Hook-and-Eye Closures
The Button Sewing Foot can also be used for attaching hook-and-eye closures with precision.
- Position Closure: Place the hook or eye component on the fabric where desired.
- Align Foot: Lower the Button Sewing Foot over the loop of the hook or eye.
- Select Stitch: Use a narrow zigzag stitch or a straight stitch, depending on the specific design of the hook or eye and the desired attachment method. Adjust stitch width and length as needed to secure the loops.
- Cosir: Carefully sew around the loops of the hook or eye to secure it to the fabric.
- Secure Thread: Tie off threads as described for button attachment.
