Thanks I literally was looking at my manual and couldn’t even get how to slide the part to fit the button haha I felt like I was going to break something. Manual says once this foot is snapped on you lower your threaded needle to pierce the starting point of your buttonhole before hitting start, if that helps anyone else. It suggests placing pin across back bar tack to prevent you from ripping right through when opening the fabric with the seam ripper. One of those skills I also hardly ever use!
Thank you! I'd completely forgotten about the "pull down random bit of plastic" part and couldn't figure out why my machine was beeping at me! 3 perfect buttonholes now made and last Yule gift finished :D
every time I try to make button holes, I end up hating the process more and more. the first, practice one comes out perfect. the next is a mess, the third is worse, the fourth is a hot mess. I do the exact same thing each time, and yet.... disaster. not sure what to do about it.

Thanks for this....I really appreciated your clear, close up camera angles so we could see the positioning and process better.
You're very welcome!
Can't find my manual, but I found you!! This was just what I needed. I had forgotten about the pull down piece. 😊
That's the part that gets me too! Glad you found the video - thx for the comment
Same! It’s not shown in my manual!! Thanks for saving me a trip to the shop!
Thank you for a wonderful tutorial!
You’re very welcome!
Thanks again!
You’re very welcome!
great tutorial!! Thank you very much!! :)
You are very welcome! It's like MAGIC isn't it? A far cry from the first buttonhole attachment my mom had in 1982! (oops... just dated myself!)
@@ArtistTaraReed LOL!! Absolutely!! it is a great invention whoever thought of it!!!
Thank you for your video. I have never used this feature. What a godsend. Wouldn't have been able to work it out
You're very welcome! I will admit to re-watching it myself if I haven't done buttonholes for a while!

Thx for the added detail and yeah... push through the stitching of a few buttonholes and a person will get better at putting up the pin roadblock! 📍
Great tutorial! I’ve been looking for one that shows you where to place the foot down and yours was so clear about it. Thanks!
You’re so welcome!
Thank you so much! I just made 4 beautiful buttonholes.
You’re welcome 😊
Thank you😊
You're welcome 😊
Thank-you for posting this. My manual does not stress the importance of pulling down the buttobhole lever; I missed it 🙄
you are very welcome - that's the KEY to success! Happy sewing!

So glad you figured it out and Happy Holidays!
I have destroyed MANY buttonholes by using a seam ripper. Use an xact-o knife instead.
Good idea! I've always been told to use a seam ripper - thx!

disaster. not sure what to do about it.
Not sure what to tell you but it sounds so frustrating - sorry that’s happening
