How to sew a buttonhole (Bernina 3A Buttonhole Foot)

[@Willow-re5cq]

I bought the foot a year ago and have been afraid to try it on my project. Your video has given me the confidence to give it a go. Thanks!

Thank you so much for this helpful tutorial! For anyone with a Bernina Virtuosa 153, the instructions in the manual for this foot are incorrect, so here's how to use this foot on that machine: 1. Attach your 3A foot 2. Choose the buttonhole stitch (on my machine it's button No.9) 3. Press the 'other' reverse button - NOT QUICK REVERSE like it says in the manual. There's another reverse button towards the top of the machine that has both the reverse symbol and buttonhole symbol. 4. The words 'auto' will flash on screen to show it's in auto buttonhole mode. 5. Sew your buttonhole using the red guides like the lovely lady in the video. Thank you again for this video!

What is the longest buttonhole you can make on both the automatic and manual? I have a 1 1/2 inch button that seems too big. Thanks so much!

[@Needlepointers]

Hi! The largest button it can stitch is 30mm which is a less than 1 1/2". Sorry!

[@anitawessels3932]

Thanks this helped me

[@cindygoldstein6829]

I don’t see what hole you are putting bobbin thread through

[@Needlepointers]

Hi Cindy, sorry that is blurry in that part of the video because I held the bobbin chase too close to the camera. If you look at your bobbin chase, there is a hole at the end of the little bit that sticks out and you thread through that hole.
