This will be such a huge time saver for me. I've been hand sewing buttons for my cup coozies and they take SO MUCH TIME. Thank you so much for this tutorial!!

[@katerinataylor7183]

Thank you!!! The sticky tape was a lightbulb moment, as I don't have a button foot. Works like a charm!

[@woin9361]

I successfully sewed on a button with my sewing machine today for the first time ever, thanks to this helpful video! I had no idea what that foot was for until watching this! I’m never hand-sewing buttons again! 🤩

[@wiwaffles660]

And here I was sewing buttons on by hand like a peasant. Thank you kind lady for the wise advice

[@blakeworsham3026]

Many thanks for this! Buttons have always driven me crazy by hand. Clear explanation and now I don’t have to feel as frustrated when I pop the buttons of my shorts off 😂.

I had open heart surgery seve ral months ago followed by a stroke which left my legs crippled and limited use of my hands. Am finally able to sew but quilting is out of the question. So is knotting for comforters. Long arm quilting is too expensive for all the tops I piece but then I remembered a twin quilt i made many years ago putting the three layers together using buttons. PROBLEM SOLVED. I am on way to creating again. Thank you for the tutorial. I had forgooten how to do the buttons.

[@thejester6976]

God bless you. You have been through some traumatic events!Whenever I hear a story like yours. It really puts my issues into perspective and makes them look silly. You sound like a really positive and strong person. I'll say a prayer for you to regain all your functions. Your story really touched me. You sound like an incredible person. Continue staying strong and positive!

[@Sheriseology]

Thanks for this. I had no idea what that foot was even for prior to this video, and now I've fixed 2 buttons successfully!

OMG thank you , thank you so much this is a very nice video it helped me so much. I own a Janome machine but I think this is going to help me. I love your HD video so nice and clear :)

[@michellejackson2425]

Thank you so much for making this video. For so long I have avoided any sewing projects that required buttons, now I’m ready to take them on!

[@SoSewEasy]

You are so welcome!

[@slowmoh6576]

Game changer! I hate sewing on buttons and have a jacket I've made waiting on 7 of them! Very excited to discover that my sewing machine came with the button foot too!

[@cinnybuggable]

Thank You so Much for continuing to leave this fantastic tutorial up❣️ I have never dated to sew a button on by machine 😅.. I've been sewing for 56 years 😂 Silly Me. It truly was So Sew Easy 🎉

[@tararoberts2625]

Hi Debbie thank you for this video, I’m not familiar with buttons and how that works with a machine so you have been very helpful

[@Turbo44mag]

Thank you! you're an excellent teacher!

[@wererich]

I read your blog post. I've been doing this for years. At first I thought it was "lazy" too but then I realized, it's quicker and more efficient. That makes it resourceful. So glad you put a tutorial up!

[@MrWolfSnack]

I'm a guy and need to learn how to sew my own clothes when the cheap buttons break or a seam rips, and I'll be damned if I know how to use a needle and thread,. However, I am comfortable around machinery and I have an easier time figuring out a machine, so the sewing machine method is what is helping me (albeit my machine is much older and I have no idea how half of the functions work yet).

[@guiyi2013]

here I am currently sewing buttons on by hand and dreading it for the next 4 school uniforms so I decided to look for a video to see if there was an easier way and behold....this little tool that I've had for years is what you used.😲 Thanks so much for this video. As soon as I get home I'm using this method and see how it works for me...I'm over hand sewn buttons...meh

[@spacep0d]

Brill, thank you!

[@TheMaricamp]

what is the model of your machine?

[@pheenix42]

Singer actually marketed a hand squeezed tool that does exactly this--it was called the 'Button Magic'. Spotted one in a local Salvation Army store, and imagine my surprise when I saw what it did.

[@labbit13ooo80]

i’m glad to see that the starting thread can be cut off. I have been cutting it off recently but worried the button would loosen.

[@phil2768]

I don't even sew, I was just curious how a machine does it. Thanks!

Hi, could you tell me what model of sewing machine that would do ( your machine ) this simple step to even jeans or light leather maybe? Thanks.

[@Argen30]

I would like to know too

[@em_c-chucky5554]

I would think that you just need to ensure you're using the correct needle

[@karenbcz22]

Wow! I need that! BUT FIRST, I need to learn how to use a sewing machine!

[@thedaydreamerplans]

Mind blown 🤯

FABULOUS. THANK YOU!!

[@edwardsblahblah]

this amy be just what i needed, the solution to my problem i have 4 holes

[@jenniferlowe5927]

What machine are you using? Thanks

[@immavirgo5668]

Do I have to knot them off by hand after sewing on the button or can I back stitch?

[@sciroccoR]

if i want to make the buttons a bit more loose, is there a way to set that on a machine? i see some sewers sticking toothpick or other items between the button and the foot to do this. thanks!

[@riteshkakkar9274]

hello how this machine work

[@kowtharhassan882]

How do u set ur machine at a low speed like that?

[@er.shafikkhan1633]

Kitne ka aata hai Bhai

[@gattbe5611]

just to make it clearer, its side to side, not back and forth

[@jones2277]

if i have a sleeve, how do i prevent the button from sewing all the way through to both parts of the sleeve?

[@kadourkhan1454]

très bien

Merci!

[@elsiejallow1697]

Please what type of stitches are you using?

If you are unsure you should always go back and replay the video She specifically said zigzag

What is your machin name also model no.!

[@venusianvessel]

Game changer

[@ptwinn9465]

How do you stop the thing on the bottom stop moving the fabric? is it on the back? is this a brother sewing machine? looks like mines!. Thank you so much for this tutorial!! :-)

[@SoSewEasy]

Your machine will do it automatically!.

[@dcwatashi]

If you don't have a setting to lower the feed dogs, adjusting the stitch length to zero will provide the same result

Is machine ke or Chal to dikao

[@Ildegardys]

It was a good video but what is the point when I can’t see the settings on top?!??

[@rd-zs5hz]

She uses her words...

[@Zack-xz1ph]

I don't have the same machine as her so it wouldn't do me any good anyway, but she showed that you just need to set the feed dogs to 0 and stitch width to whatever the distance is from the center of the holes. BTW you can measure that distance accurately by measuring from one edge of a hole to the same edge of the other hole, so you don't have to eyeball the center

[@supravasethi5629]

NAMASTE MAM.LOVELY.

[@SnarkDADmin]

I've got two pairs of pants that I keep asking my wife to please fix and she keeps forgetting to. Last time I joked that I was going to learn how to use her sewing machine and do it myself. Now I'm going to mildly impress her, not with my ability to use her Brother machine, but at my pure pettiness. 🤣

[@angenettaivy8918]

Wow. Didn't see what setting on machine

[@dcwatashi]

yes it would have been nice to see it but she specifically said it out loud so just go back and replay the video and you hear her settings

[@chewbacca7856]

Gonna sew buttons on my cap to hold the elastic bans off my ears. Thanks so sew much.

[@pauldavid359]

Why don't you show us how you set the movement of needle instead of just saying what you're doing. I don't have the exact machine as you. mine is an XR3140 brother

It would be great if most of your subject was in the range of the camera.

[@cherylbrown1038]

I d not have a button foot, what would I need to sew on the button?

She specifically said in the video if you do not have the button foot then just use tape to hold the button in place

[@cherylbrown1038]

@@dcwatashi That didn't work

[@dcwatashi]

@@cherylbrown1038 what type of tape were you using to hold the button in place?

They just cut bottom tread so short that the sewn gets loose and buttons come off.
