buttonhole, and then use the seam ripper to cut
open the buttonhole.

1 Eyelet punch

• When using the eyelet punch, place thick

paper or some other protective sheet under
the fabric before punching the hole in the
fabric.

Changing the density of the stitching

Adjust the stitch length.

• For details, refer to “Adjusting the stitch

length” (page 58).

• If the fabric does not feed (for example, if it is

too thick), decrease the density of the
stitching.

Changing the stitch width

Adjust the stitch width.

• For details, refer to “Adjusting the stitch

width” (page 57).

Memo

● Before sewing buttonholes, check the stitch

length and width by sewing a trial
buttonhole on a scrap piece of fabric.
