- Miss Sew shows you one of the ways to create a bound buttonhole. When making a garment the buttonholes would be marked with thread to help you line them up correctly and to keep them even. This video shows a simplified method to get you started with the technique.
I have watched several tutorials for bound button holes. This is by far the best!!
Thank you! Glad you found me ☺️
This is super helpful and clear! Totally takes my fear away regarding bound buttonholes.
Zoey Duncan thank you!! Glad I could help you get over the fear! They’re really not as bad as they look! 😊
I don't make bound buttonholes/welts often enough to remember each step which is critical to make a great looking product. However, I go to Miss Sew to refresh & know that the results will be professional looking. I was taught a different method, but this is superior. As many have commented, other methods pale in comparison. This is foolproof if followed carefully.
Thank you so much!! What a wonderful comment ☺️
I recently came across some old Singer Sewing Library booklets from the early 60s and the instructions for this buttonhole (same technique) were as clear as mud! And there were illustrations and everything. I'm normally very good at learning things from instructions and taught myself knitting, crochet, and tatting by reading books, but sewing instructions just thwart my abilities, it seems! This is very clear and looks a whole lot easier than the booklet made it seem.
I’m glad I could help make this technique a little easier 😊
Brilliant 👏 I am going to try my hand after watching you. I haven't done this in 50 years. I was at school at the time.
Do it!! I’m so pleased I’ve instilled confidence in you. It’s all about precision in stitching, cutting and pressing! Good luck ☺️
Fantastic video and instructions. So clear and easy to follow. Lots of extra helpful tips along the way. Thank you so much!
Thank you! Glad you liked it 😊
Really like your explanation. ♡♡♡
I cannot thank you enough for this video. Just the best. Thank you so much
Thank you for your lovely feedback. I’m so pleased I could help 😊
Great demo…haven’t done one of these in many years…exactly as I remembered it…thanks…
Thank you! - bound buttonholes are so satisfying to create 😊
Nice! This updated method eliminates uneven "legs" and crooked ends in the buttonhole. Thanks
You’re welcome 😊 - thanks for watching
❤THANK YOU SO MUCH! I now made my first button hole via your video!!!!! Your step-by-step made it so easy to follow! Mine came out perfect! Wow, I am so happy with it.❤
Yes!! I’m so pleased I could help 😀
Super helpful! I enjoy learning new sewing skills, and need to do this on a garment. Your demonstration was clear and easy to follow.
Thank you so much! The buttonholes are usually created at the end of construction but I often do them first when using this technique - just in case it goes wrong, then I can cut a new front, rather than unpick a big project 😊
Perfect, straight to the point tutorial. Thank you so much 💓
You’re welcome! Thank you for your lovely comment ☺️
Can't wait to use this in my textiles exam today! Thanks for the clear instructions ☺️
Good luck with the exam!! 🤞
Thank you very much. You make it look so easy and simple to follow.
Thank you! The scary and difficult part is making them on your actual garment and keeping them all aligned and equally sized... practise lots on scraps first! 😊
Brilliant, thank you! My machine only does straight stitch so this is my solution!
You’re welcome - thank you for watching 😊
I just watched a much more complicated method where you fold a double layer of patch, stitched at the middle, then open the seam and on and on. Are there any advantages/disadvantages to the various methods? Great video - So clear! Thank you!
Thank you for your feedback 😀
There are lots of methods. Some are meant to be easier or enable the 'lips' of the buttonhole to be more uniform in size and others create less bulk and use less fabric in the 'patch.' I guess it's a personal preference.
Love the ending, wish I could work that fast ; -) ! I'd never thought of doing a bound buttonhole before. Great little vid with clear explanation!
ha ha! - thanks Emily x
Very clear and interesting I understand perfectly, thank you very much :))
Thank you for good instructional great help for me.
You’re welcome ☺️
Excellent explanation. Thank you.
Thank you!! 😊
How would you do this with a lining, and have the lining cover the back of the buttonhole? Would the lining not also be part of the button hole? Does the lining get its own bound buttonhole?
magicattic if you had a lining (for example in a coat) keep the lining separate from the outer layer, make the bound buttonholes in the outer fabric and then mark the buttonhole placement onto the lining. Cut and slash the lining at the buttonhole markings, cutting a Y or X shape then fold the lining in around the hole and slip stitch by hand to the outer layer.
Do you think I could make a reversible coat like that?
You are simply the best. I love your method, its just straight to the point. I'm gonna try this now. Thanks a million. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 I'm awarding you with ten stars.
Eunice Alalibo thank you! That’s such lovely feedback!! Glad I could help x😊
Thank you for this great tutorial.
Joanna GV you’re welcome!! 😊
Thank you
I was watching the last episode of the 'Great British Sewing Bee' and creating a bound buttonhole was something they had to do. It's a lovely technique and you demonstrated it so well, I am going to give it a go. What type of garment would you use a bound buttonhole on. Thank you:)
Yo same! I remember them talking about how it was usually used in couture, so I assume pretty much anything fancy!
Thank you! What a brilliant series of Sewing Bee it’s been!
I’ve used this technique mainly on coats and jackets but I’ve also seen it on vintage sewing patterns for tops. I’ve also used it on bags.
Thank you very much
You’re welcome ☺️
Thank you very much for this super helpful video. I have had a bit of a disaster with buttonholes, made on my sewing machine, on a jacket. Do you think that I could use this method over the top of the present buttonholes, and make them look a bit more presentable. Thanks in advance for your help. Carole Hack
I’ve not tried this method to cover old buttonholes. It could work... depending on how far you’ve got with construction. You need to stitch through just one layer and then use the jacket facing to tidy up the back of the hole. If you haven’t cut the buttonholes yet, it’s best to unpick abd try again.
Reminds me of a double welt pocket
Yes - it’s a very similar process 😊
thanks you
You’re welcome 😊
Nice❤
Nice
Niiiiice! Thx
Thanks
You’re welcome 😊
If the back is covered by the lining then you need to have a buttonhole in the lining as well
Yes, I would cut the buttonhole in the lining, fold into position and hand stitch in place.
Beautiful!
Brilliant
Gmama 10 thanks! 😊
Is this the same method that can be used on leather?
Tray Parker I don’t work with leather but this method should work with any fabric.
What brand and style of iron do you use ?
This one is a Phillips GC2530.
Pretty workmanship ❤ I wish I can make one learn from you for my channel NoRest 4 Creative.
Kindly grant ❤
