      I will be 75 on November 5th. We won't discuss that day other than I have been sewing since I was 9 years and I have never seen buttonholes made this way. They make sense and I think they would be somewhat stronger. I don't care for the way buttonholes looking raggy after they are cut. This looks so much more finished and neater. This lady has so many great ideas. She is awesome.

    • @NotchesSewing
      @NotchesSewing  5 месяцев назад +4

      That’s so kind of you to say🥰. Thank you. One thing you can add is a tiny line of clear fabric glue to the back of those cut buttonholes to keep it from fraying especially on very lightweight fabric. Thanks for watching!

    In all my 50+ years of sewing i never learned these alternative buttonhole methods. Thank you! Would sewing the traditional bar stitch over these types of holes be OK for reinforcing thicker fabrics like for coats? Or would it not look right or pucker the edges especially for lighter fabrics? Are these stronger? Super methods and look so nice! Already subscribed and notified...never miss your wonderful vids! 🤗

    • @NotchesSewing
      @NotchesSewing  5 месяцев назад +3

      Thank you. I wouldn’t use this method for coats as the buttonholes should be horizontal. Would use bound buttonholes for thick coats. No need to tack fine fabric if well interfaced and double backtracked

    • @NotchesSewing

      Thank you! But don’t be afraid of your buttonhole attachment. Take out ½ hr from your day and just play around with it on some scrap. Once you “get it”, buttonholes will be a breeze……Try different widths and lengths to see how they look on different fabrics.

    Although I’ve made a zillion button holes, using a button hole attachment ( like you showed in the beginning) It often falls short when I need to made a buttonhole in fabric that is thicker than a light/mid weight one. The bulk catches and messes up the buttonhole attachment. The method of making them in a seam is brilliant!

    But then I remembered you saying that some people don’t like the look of the extra stitching that the button hole attachment makes.
    So I think with an article that you’re not going to use the buttons a lot this would be a really nice way to do it
    Just think if you are going to be using it for a jacket I prefer the sturdiness of those zigzag stitches
